What should i do?

Hello,

I currently have a first direct regular saving account and a nsandi isa. I currently save £500 a month, £400 into my isa and £100 into my regular saver.

I think i could save this money in a wiser way, so i'm just after some advice. Should i spread the savings around some more?

thanks for any advice.

Nathan

    Seems an ok approach to me. Though you might put as much as possible into your ISA soonest due to the fact that the interest is tax-free and the sooner it's there, the more tax-free compounded interest you will earn.

    The First Direct regular saver paying 8% will leave you with approximately 6.4% after the deduction of tax at basic rate.
