| Muze I am with UBS as well and I looked at their stuff and was not impressed.
Btw I am not going to risk the money but what options are there for high risk money growing schemes? What does high risk mean? Does it mean you can loose the whole 60k? | |

Yes, you can lose the lot.
Risk vs Reward: High risk, high reward. Low risk, low reward.
Only invest (stocks etc) what you can afford to lose etc.
If you want 75% over 5 years return, be prepared to accept 95% loss over the same 5 years.
If you want 10% over 5 years with minimal risk, put it in PostFinance or the Isle of Man.
Now, if you're offered 100% return over 2 years: that's too good to be true, so it *will* be too good to be true.
Or I could take up the offer to help one of those nice Nigerian chaps who has £100 million in petro-dollars...

Why not split it?
Some off-shore, some in bank (just in case), some with PostFinance, some with UBS etc... risk diversification...
