If you go above 20,000, you can still invest. Like there are many years I, I have to go above the 20,000. I decided I want to invest more, but I will not get any that ISA benefit because I've gone above 20,000. Now, number one is the simplest. It's cash ISA. Cash ISA is basically a savings account. And the only difference between cash ISA and other types of ISA is that if you get savings in a savings account and you pass the savings allowance, which Dr. Gates, who said was 500. Right. For a higher rate taxpayer, 1,000 for the basic rate taxpayer. So the difference is that in cash ISO, if you get an interest or not, you don't need to declare it, there's no tax on it.
