i won't need to get at it for about 5 years if it helps - whats the best way i could invest it ? something medium risk but with at least some return.

Hello,

I also had a similair problem as you have.
I had a good amount of money, and wanted it to grow.
So I looked around on the internet to find something that is:
1) giving me great returns towards a relatively small risk

2) Professional people who know what they where doing with my money.

I'm glad to say I finally found a moneymanager who is capable of giving me good returns and give me a great support.
On this blog you can follow up all the results that he is making:

My money is working for me, in a little over two months I already have a ROI of 69%.
So you don't hear me complaining!
Annyway if you would like to get in touch with my moneymanager to have some more information feel free to contact me you can send an email to me at derrekmay at gmail.com.
Then I'll give you the email adress of my moneymanager

Hope this has helped you!

Hmm...difficult but I still think if you can get hold of property you will see a good return on it and you can rent it out so have income from it too

Well start to buy refurbished propertys then do them up and sell them for more or rent them out and soon your money will mout up to double if not trilple of what you started with

You probably want to use a managed fund with a good return rate.After five years of compounding, you should have quite a good amount of accrued interest...Or we could go halves in a pound of coccaine, and then make some quick cash...But you know, whatever...
