What are the best options for personal investing of 20k short term high return and long range low return?


don't know if i should just go for a sure thing, long term investment for retirement or take a chance high risk short term stuff

remember i'm only working with 20k

The approach used by Warren Buffett (the world's 2nd richest man after Bill Gates) & his followers is invest for the long term, over at least 20-30yrs

Give it to me and i'll see what i can win for you on the football bets!

If you can invest upto 25k you can invest in NUMISMATIC INVESTMENTS with Quest International, a e-commerce company which even gives you a business opportunity with your investment, through which you can have long term benefit.

Look into index funds. Use the calculator at http://www.1728.com/compint.htm, and see what you get at, say and average of eight percent over ten years compounded annually when you invest twenty grand. You might be surprised.

You have to provide more information about the possible payouts and their likelihoods to arrive at a rational decision. You'd also need some measure of your risk tolerance to indicate your preferences in trading off risk and reward.

For instance, the "sure thing" could be putting money under your mattress. That might sound like a poor investment, but if the alternative is putting it all in lottery tickets, the mattress might sound pretty good. But then if your life circumstances have you needing $100k for a kidney transplant operation or else you die, then the mattress becomes a sure loser, whereas the lottery tickets give you some chance of living longer.

I suggest you do both. invest, say, $5k for short term high risk and $15k for long term low risk. This will help you in old age and at the same time will give you the chance for high profit, which you may well regret later if you do not avail your self of it now

For the short term option I suggest 3 or 4 penny stocks This need not be too risky if you do some researching of the companies first. For the long term I suggest two very low cost mutual funds one tracking the S&P500 index and the other tracking the world index

Invest in a low cost / budget mobile telecom company, like "EasyJet" (Europe) dit it with the airline company.

Would you like to invest in my Prepaid Legal Services Provider Company based in Manila, Philippines. I can offer you a guaranteed 2.5% monthly interest income plus the Option to earn a lot more.

Thank you
