Why not go via the Unit Trust route which invest in shares as this way you will be spreading your risk over a wider range of companies or market sectors rather than putting all your eggs in a few baskets. . There are many to chose from and the best thing to do is buy a money/finance magazine and get familiar with the trusts and sectors available. Better still, invest your money in an ISA wrapper and all your profits will be tax free. You can invest any amount up to �7,000 per annum in an ISA, either in a lump sum or by regular monthly investments, where the minimum is usually around �50 a month.
