Can somebody suggest where I can park my money for about 5 months and earn a good interest? :confused: I have about 5K to invest! :j

    £3000 in a first direct e-Isa, and if you have a partner you can trust, open one in their name for the remainder.

    If you already have an Isa, then open a couple of building society kids accounts - if you have kids, if not, simply open accounts in trust for relatives.

    Will I be able to move money and out quickly? Can someone help me in projecting the net profits if I invest 5k by 15th Sep and withdraw the amount by say 25th Jan.
