What are some good safe investments?

I need some advice and direction to go about investments?

Investing in stocks is too risky for you as a beginner.
Better put your savings into a high interest account @12% APY as I did and get guaranteed income.
This is SAFE.

1. Put your savings into a high interest account @12% APY

2. Find clients for an overseas investment company. They will pay you high comission (1%) for each person referred.
1% from $10,000 is $100 and you could find hundreds of clients each month. Lot's of people will be glad to get 12% APY.
You owe me a drink. :-)

Good luck!

mutral funds

bet on the celtics....they win 80 percent of the time

Everybody definition of safe is different. Safe could be a money market fund in a brokerage account but your return on investment would not keep up with inflation. If you have a longer time frame(5+ years), you could take on more risk. Perhaps a Balanced Mutual Fund which would include stocks & bonds and generally less risk than an all stock fund. Start looking around at the low cost providers like Fidelity & Vanguard. Their websites are great to learn from. Do your own homework and make your own decisions, it will serve you well in the long run. Good luck!

If you decide to go with mutual funds, do your homework. About 75% of them under perform the market. All of them have management fees. And some have sales loads.

There are good mutual funds, but you really have to do your homework to find them.

May I suggest a DRIP plan.

They are seldom talked about because brokers make very little money when they suggest them. Yet, they have proven to be one of the best, if not the best, long-term strategy on Wall Street.

They are perfect for small investors, as well as big investors. They are safe and allow you to not care about whether the market is going up or down.

i would like to say u have to investment in hospitality secton to u get good profit

How old are you? If you are close to retirement, bonds or Treasuries are good. If you have 20+ years to invest before retiring, pay yourself first every paycheck. (try for 10%, but start w SOMETHING every payday).
I would suggest buying a share of MON every other month. (look it up) Buy CGMFX (mutual fund) the alternating months. This fund is run by Ken Heebner, a real pro. Depending on how much you can put away monthly, your wealth will grow phenomenally!
Good Luck!
