What is the best way to invest money if you have no long term goal?


My five year old wants to start investing. She has opened a savings account and I told her when there was a good sum in there we would look at investing it. Since the money she puts in will be her own (from Christmas, birthday, etc) I don't want it to be earmarked for college. Without a specific goal (college / retirement, etc) where would it be best to invest the money?

I don't want something that I am going to have to actively manage or that carries huge fees.

Saving bond and mutual funds. Over time, they will be a significant investment for your child in the long run, even though you don't have a long term goal. Saving bond that you are able to cash after holding it for a year. and Various mutual funds has varies conditions applies to them. That way, you are teaching your child value of his/her dollars!

buy shares for it. but find out which shares are going up and which one down. if u can find out which company to buy from u can make loads of money. for example in october, googles shares were at 400 and now it has come upto 500. this means if u bought a google share for 400 last month u cud sell it now for 500 making a profit of 100. like wise, if u bought 拢1000 pound share in Racal ( a UK tech company which owns Vodafone) u would be a millionaire now. so analyse companies which r having good businesses and buy shares from them.
for more info on share prices go to yahoo finance...

when talking abt this i wud like to tell u that people make money in 2 ways when they buy shares. one is divident which is paid out of the company profits (mostly done by eldely people), the other way is through capital gains, this means by selling shares u have when it prices rise very high in the stock market. but this need careful analysis of the market.

Buy fundamentally strong shares. it'll fetch fantastic returns.
