1.save money
2.spend time and effort to acquire investing knowledge
3.when confident and enough fund, develop financial goal
4.seek appropriate investment vehicle (i myslef prefer stock)
5.start searching investment opportunities (timing and price)

don't:
1.be too greedy (little bit is fine actually)
2.invest without financial goals in place
3.invest just because you have enough money
4.forget to do research before putting any money

buy a stock mutual fund to start. Vanguard has plenty of low cost index funds. Contribute monthly into the account and you're well on your way. BTW, you'll need several million by the time you're ready to retire, and that will be just for gas.

a comination of all 3. but mostly stocks. stocks will give the best return over the long haul.
happy investing

Stocks have a lot of risk attached to them, bonds are safer but, ROI is less than stocks. Annuties are for people that have money saved and want to distribute a portion of it later on. You should start saving now by contributing to your job's 401K program at least the percentage that the company matches. Wealth is not acquired overnight unless you happen to fall into it. Chances of that are slim. But, if you start saving now, through compound interest, your money will grow over time. If your company does not have a 401K, open a Roth IRA with someone like Fidelity Investments or similar. I like their equity income mutual fund for parking my money. Start reading Ben Stein and other financial advisors.

I suppose you dont have much money yet. Try to invest into mutual funds or ETFs.
To invest in stocks and do well, you need far more knowledge and atleast $50,000 as a starting point.
On the other hand, a mutual fund will let you open an account with $100 and monthly contribution of $50. While you are in school or university, in 10 years can give you $10,000 if you make contributions like those and with average 8% annual rate.

The first thing you need to do is put money into savings. You should have 3-6 months of income saved before you put money into other investments.

Then, sit down and look at what your goals are. You're young, so risk is not much of an issue. Generally, you'll want to put 80-90% of your money into stocks, with the rest in mutual fund and bonds. That distribution (with a wide range of stocks and bonds) will generally give you an average growth of about 11% per year. That is the historic growth rate.

Annuities are stable, but do not generally grow that well. They are typically what you will convert your investments into someday down the road when you are at the point where you are living off of your investments.

I would say the best advice for a younger person would be to save and in all things that you do.. be smart before spending money. You want Millions and alot more you have to first be smart, because when you are smart with you ways in making money --no one can ever take that from you. And you will always know the key to MAKING YOUR MONEY! [[$$$$$$]]
good lucK! && pray on it.
