# you can only have a max of 7000 in an ISA
and only 3000 of that can be cash, the rest has to be shares and stuff.

# you can split it into 3 accounts
you could have a cash ISA for more instant access. I personally have a mini ISA which needs to mature for 5 years before i really touch it. Then I will buy a concorde so i can decoupage kittens to it.

# That's right
Pretend that you don't know about it. Ask your bank to transfer all of your funds into a high-interest account without asking for a balance. Wait for someone to ask for it back. I know someone who received £776,000 instead of £76,000 as a pension lump sum. Kept it for over a year made £18,000 interest.
