    More detail please.

    Do you want to have instant access to it? can you do with ut it for a year or more? Is it money you want to gamble a little with? i.e. Shares, stocks or gold maybe? Interest rate should go up soon so try get something where the savings interest will go up too. Maybe you have a mortgage & could pay it off that ?

    Good luck & save well.

    Do you need instant access?

    I invested 7500 in silver last April. Its now worth 14500.

    You could consider precious metals, you get a better return than the couple of percent the banks give you.

    Do they hold it for you or how does it work?

    I got silver certs from the Pert Mint in Australia through GoldCore.

    They will charge you 1% extra if you want physical silver but you need to store it then.
