Child Benefit query

    Hi all,

    I assume this has been explored regularly here, but I’d appreciate some opinions.

    Luckily we are in a position to save our CB for our 2nd child, a girl born in April. Just wondering if anyone has any advice/point of contact about using this money wisely.

    For our first son, I just deposit money into a Post Office a/c every month with very poor return. It certainly won’t beat inflation, although it is secure.

    I’m not financially minded, so don’t understand a lot of the jargon on some of the websites I’ve explored, so just looking at the experiences of others.
