Tax return! what do i do with it!!!?
i am only getting 1500 dollars back. i don't know what to do with it, usually i go spend it all but i was thinking about putting some away and collecting interest on it. does anybody have any suggestions as to what i can do

Open a money market account. ING offers good rates, so does Countrywide bank.
You can earn about 4.5% APY if you shop around.

Or you can open a Roth IRA for this year. Most demand $2500 to open but you can do an automatic monthly investment to avoid this.

Do you want it accessible or not?
If not, invest it. I recommend taking it to a local broker and choosing a fund. A great way to plan long term.

If you want it accessible, put it in your savings account (better interest than checking) and act as if it isn't there. Treat it like a safety net. If you can make it for several months without touching it, then move towards a planned investment.

Buy some things you need/want and try saving the rest. I try to save 60% and spend 40

Only? That's a lot. You're giving a 0% loan. If nothing's changing, I'd recommend increasing your W4 withholding by 1, then you'll have more money from each check.

Use the additional money in each check to invest for your "future-you". Put in the stock market in a brokerage account and in a few years you'll have money for a great vacation, new car, new furniture, whatever. Or put it in a retirement fund so you won't have to eat cat food when you're 70, b/c the cost of health insurance and scrips will be so high.

You can have the extra money ($50 to $75 per month) taken directly out of your check and sent to your investment account - to prevent you from blowing it.

The $1,500 would be better off in a sock in your drawer then in any bank. Even better if you invested into something you knew about so you could turn a profit, used cars, arts & crafts, etc ...

Good luck!

If you have bills, pay them. If not, save the money.

washington mutual currently has the best rate of return on cd's. I'm not sure if there is a minimum requirement though. let your money make money!

take some to spend for yourself if you need or want somehting, then with the rest look into a high interest savings account if you don't have an emergency fund and put this to start it.

Some online banks like CitiBank, HSBC direct and ING give pretty good interest.

I like HSBC because you get a debit card so you can access the money immeditately in case of emergency - just be sure to put that card away and not touch it - only for emergencies

do you have kids? you could put it in a savings plan so they have something when they got to school.
you could put it in an rrsp.
a GIC for a while...
put it toward a down payment for a house if you don't own one already..

if you did decide spend it you could take your friends out for the night... thats an investment in a way.

I'll take "put it in a savings account or money market fund" for 500, Alex.

Invest it.

Start putting money away NOW for retirement. Many people put off saving for retirement until they are middle-aged, and then it really gets hard to put enough away to maintain lifestyle. You won't feel it if you don't spend it - put it in a long-term investment, like a CD or a T-Bill.

Best advice I never followed: Each time you get a bonus or profit sharing, put it in long-term savings; Every time you get money back on your taxes, put it in long-term savings; Every time you get a raise, start putting *half* of the increase in long-term savings.

Now I'm scrambling to catch up.

Learn to live within your current means, then increases are gravy - take half the gravy and up your lifestyle, but make sure you put half away.


Imperfection at it's finest
put it in the bank, pay bills, buy something for yourself or loved ones, donate it to your favorite charity,

give it to me ;) j-k

They have something called a CD account at most banks, i'm not quite sure the rates, and rules of them, but i know that you don't have to have alot of money to start one.
