Hi there everyone! I have £120,000 in spare cash. I would like to try and earn as much money from it in 5 years. My attitude to risk is "Medium". Any ideas? I have already cleared my Mortgage so this is indeed spare cash. Thanks...:A

Medium will mean different things to different people, but you could certainly consider investing in a variety of unit trusts and OEICs to get some decent growth over the next 5 years.
However, my top suggestion would be to see an independent financial adviser with that much money at stake!I am a Chartered Financial Planner

Medium risk in its recognised form "could" double your money although that is unlikely given the current cycle. Probably closer to 50%-60% positive if things arent bad to nothing if things dont get well.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0
