85k to invest for 20 years

Just that really.

Its such a large sum, and unexpected! Normally I would be all over this but I can’t decide. MSE isn’t really helping!

I am a taxpayer, can’t put it in an ISA.

Grateful for any suggestions where to start.

I like how it keeps things clean and makes it easy for investors to skim what matters. If you're already checking out early-stage picks, tools that simplify the match-making process can save a lot of wheel‑spinning. I’ve found that services linked to venture capital for startups help cut through random leads and surface signals that actually matter, especially if you want quick, data-based hints instead of endless digging.
