Any sound intelligent advice for short/long term investment of 1 to 2 K ?

i wouldn't go short term unless it's blowable, then invest in something small/risky. for real INVESTMENT put it all in a blue chip like Southern Company, Coca Cola, Home Depot, etc. as far as an investment medium, i wouldn't put a short term investment in an IRA (retirement fund), but going long term would go w/ IRA (tax sheltered).

long term-- IRA account.

Futures trading, but it requires 6-10 K! more information? contact me!

Go to vanguard.com. Tell them you want to buy a S&P 500 index fund.

I can give you advice.
