Investment No Brainer!

I invested £40,000, at the start of 2023, in a one year fixed rate with SmartSave. I made a very good rate of return on my investment with SmartSave. At the end of the one year term SmartSave offered me the best one year fixed rate I could find anywhere for 2024, so I reinvested the previous £40,000, plus the 2023 interest, into another one year fixed rate with SmartSave for 2024!
