invest note, say, in competition

B-S-E-E
I can only think of BESIEGE but I can't see why this should be the answer. Just this one left to do.

i.e. is that is
a note could be a musical note for example g
is a competition a bee like a spelling b?

but where does the s come into it?

From the Penguin Concise Thesaurus:

invest - ....5 (the rebels invested the castle) besiege, surround, ....

'note, say' is 'SIE' the pronounciation of 'C' and competition is 'BEE'. Not quite sure where the 'G' comes from.
