How toinvest money?

I had the same problem as you have.
I had a good amount of money, but didn't knew where to invest it.
So I looked around for something that gave me a great return towards a low risk.
And the only thing I could find was a mannaged account.
Here you can follow up my results of every day:

I'm verry excited because I already have 47% ROI in one month and a half.
My moneymannager is giving me great support, and answer all of my questions almost immediatly.
Annyway feel free to contact me (adress on my blog) and I'll bring you in direct contact with my money mannager.

Everything is in the melting pot at present. Buy six or 12 month fixed rate bonds.

That really depends on a lot of factors. What is your age? What is your risk tolerance? Do you have other investments or holdings? How soon will you need the money? Do you have monthly income? What are your expenses?

Investing involves looking at the whole picture and making a well informed decision that is correct for a given individual.

In a savings account. The financial markets have at least six months more to shake out the excesses of unbridled lending, so - in my opinion - the probabality that markets will be lower six months hence seem higher than the odds that they'll be higher. So wait. In a few months start considering some mutual funds. I personally like funds in developing economies like Brazil, but that, once again, is just one man's opinion. Take your time and talk to many sources before you make your decision.

Also, consider how long a time horizon you have on your investments. If it's less than a year, shares are probably not the place to be.

Invest in your knowledge first, then invest in what you have mastered whether it is real estate, stocks or other investments

National Savings and Investments

http://www.nsandi.com

100% guaranteed by the government. They don't necessarily pay the best rates, though.

In the past I've recommended people to put their £100,000 in NS&I income bonds, and then put the monthly interest from that into Zopa, which pays the best rates I've found so far. Zopa is a lending and borrowing exchange that allows you to lend money directly to individuals with good credit ratings, cutting out the banks and middle men and allowing you to keep all the profit. I'm currently receiving 7%-11%pa, which is much better than any savings account.

If you apply via this link:

http://www.zopa.com/member/The%20Hulk

you get an introductory offer of £30 if you lend more than £500.

The money you lend is repaid regularly with interest. You can choose to automatically relend the money, or to have it paid into your account. In this situation, I would have it paid into the account, and then use the interest to buy more income bonds. That way you regularly increase your holdings of income bonds, and get a larger income from a safe and secure source, and you also take advantage of the great rates offered by Zopa, increasing your investment in Zopa every month.

By following this idea, you have no risk associated with the stock market, your initial £100,000 capital is guaranteed safe, grows regularly, and produces more and more money every month (depending on interest rates, of course.)

Northern Rock, or get in touch with Nick Leeson.... seriously, I'd see what Alliance and Leicester have to offer.

Not shares! Something with a guaranteed secured return, ie a tax free icer with an impressive interest rate.

Invest in ETF: ETFs are cheaper than mutual funds. ETFs have very low annual expenses, nearly 20 basis points or 0.2% less. As against this, actively managed mutual funds show average expenses exceeding 135 basis points (1.35%). This does not include the extra 2% - 5% as loads, 12(b)-1 marketing fees, transactions costs, and soft dollar expenses mutual funds, passed on to you but never informed, except in very fine print that nobody cares to read.

ETFs have a lower turnover than most mutual funds. As ETFs do not require active management and hold nearly a steady stream of stocks, there is hardly any portfolio turnover. On the other hand, many actively managed mutual funds churn their portfolio many times throughout the year, leading to recurring transaction fees on every purchase and sale.
