What is the best wy to invest money?


if you have money put a way hows the best way to get more money by investing it

First, I would make sure you have at least 3 months salary saved up in the bank or in a money market fund for an emergency fund. (Some people say 6 months.) Financial disasters like getting layed off or sick happen to all of us.

Second, I would pay off all high interest debt. Pay off everything you can except the house mortgage and student loans. Paying off debt is one of the best investments you can make. You will have more money in the future because you won't have credit card bills to pay. (Depending on the rates, you may want to pay off the mortgage and student loans as well.)

Third, start investing in stocks, bonds, and money market funds. You want to buy a diversified portfolio of stocks, as individual stocks are too risky. For most folks this means buying mutual funds. I like Vanguard.com, other people like Fidelity, TIAA-CREF, and DFA. Buy no-load, low cost funds. If you are like most people you will invest part of your money conservatively, in money market funds and bond funds, and part aggressively in stock funds. Vanguard.com has an on-line questionnaire which will give you an idea how aggressive you want to be.

Investing in a mutual fund IRA for retirement may give you an income tax break. Talk to your tax adviser. You may also be able to invest in a stock mutual fund via a 401K plan at work. Buying a house instead of renting will make you a lot of money in the long run.

Believing advice you get on Yahoo answers can be risky, so read these websites for further information. If you find it too confusing, contact a professional financial advisor. They will charge you significant commissions, however.

Real estate stuff..you don't really necessarily need a degree i think..pretty easy as long as you have enough money for investing and aren't too afraid if you might have some loss..but if you do plan to go into real estate, it might be very stressing because you have to know PRECISELY if it is a good investment or not. because living in california, if you lose,you lose A LOT..

time deposit it in a established bank.

Start by reading investment books. Dummies and Idiot guides are a good start. There's a lot of information on www.motleyfool.com and finance.yahoo.com as well.

Get your money working for you right now! Stick it in a savings account, mutual fund, or treasury bond. Do something, anything. Talk to people you know who invest.

Once you know more from books, you can start making more educated decisions.

I'm fairly young and I have a very aggressive investing strategy. I l have a lot of small cap and international investments but not everyone can handle that kind of risk (I've seen my money fluctuate a lot).

For more conservative investors, invest in stocks of established companies (i.e. Bank of America, JP Morgan, Chase).

It depends on how much risk you want and the best way to understand that is to read several books.

I read 4 books on investing and several websites before I put money into an account. I was 20 when I started. No matter what, the younger you start the better.

Stock market or mutual funds pays off the best, if you know how to.

Hi ,

I have what I think is a great trading system for you.
Unfortunately this system comes with so many problems that you probably won't be interested in it....

First, you don't ever have any losing days with this system and we never use stops so there are no losing trades.

Second, you don't use any charts and I know how much most folks love charts....as much as I used to love them.

Third, it only takes 30 minutes a week to trade. I know that you guys devote your lives to trading so this system "just won't do it."

Fourth, it only makes about 20% a month in profit so it will double your money every 3 or 4 months.

Fifth, it's not a directional trading system so it makes money in all markets whether the price goes up or down.

I was going to tell you about it but because it has all these problems, I won't bother you with it. I'm sure you wouldn't pay any attention to it even if you knew about it.
