I'd be grateful for any advice about a pep. My father gave me the money to buy one several years ago, so that there would always be money to buy treats for my disabled brother (holidays, new telly, that sort of thing). My father advised on where to put the money, I just signed the papers. The pep has obviously lost value tremendously and I'm now wondering what to do about it. My father has since died, he would've been so upset to know that money he carefully and thoughtfully laid aside for my brother had been stolen like this.
Would it be more sensible to take the money, stick it into a building society/ bank /normal sort of account/ under the mattress - at least that way it wouldn't lose value any more, or should I leave it where it is? It now only amounts to maybe 3 or 4 thousand.
I'm afraid I'm not very savvy about money, not generally having any to be savvy about, and at a very basic level feel it's criminal that money has been stolen from a disabled person like this. Where has it gone? It must exist somewhere? Who is enjoying it?
Anyway, stupid emotion aside, what would be best to do with it?
Grateful thanks
Liz
