Hi all,
I'm hoping somebody may be able to offer me some advice.
Basically, I've been offered work abroad for an extended period (12-18 months) and I've a OK size of money sitting in an PTSB account earning nothing pretty much (0.2%) and I've to make a decision on what to do with this in the next week or so as i'll be leaving.
I have no mortgage yet and i'd like the money to be there when i come back as a house deposit so i don't think i'd be happy for it to be in an aggressive manner (hedgefund), but could be swayed by your opinions as i know it'll earn fairly low interest in a deposit account.
Also I've shares in my company that will mature whilst i'm away and some will not be matured until (if) i return. A colleague in work mentioned that I may benefit for tax purposes if i'm not in the country for a certain time in regards to the shares, is this true?
Thanks in advance,
Tom
