I would take it to the bank and put it in an ISA. £1000 is not a huge amount of money, and an ISA is about the best. Shares are fine if you have a bit more money. Premium Bonds lose money effectively because small investments tend not to rturn any prizes.
Or you could put it on a dead cert 10-1 shot in the 2.15 at Haydock. |

I would put it into a cash ISA with your bank or building society. Tax free savings. If you have money to invest, always look to utilise your tax free savings allowance first of all. This would be an ISA (if you are in the UK). If you have a cash ISA (individual savings plan) then you can invest this money into a stocks and shares mini ISA. |

It's not a lot to invest// depends a bit how long before you need it I would buy a fixed term bond giving a guaranteed return You can pick the term anything from 6 months to 5 years ,But £1000 won't earn a lot . 5 % a year maybe . |

I would put it in a money market account, and let it stay there for a few months earning a risk free 5%. Then after the stock markets have calmed, I would invest it in a mutual fund and stay away from the housing sector. |

Put it in stocks and shares, it will grow faster. If you need it some time soon then don't follow the above advice. |

In a web site that runs its self say freelance worker at £300 then say £4 to 500 on advertising in carefully selected printed media, the just keep advertising till you have the best mags etc to repeat the sales figures time and time again.
A grand in shares or stocks or similar is just not in my opinion worth the effort |

How you invest your money depends on your age, risk-taking stance and intentions. Some investments are more risky than others, the least risky being bank deposits and the most risky being share holdings in smaller companies operating in difficult markets. If you open a UK bank account, the vast majority of your money is protected by the UK Government under the investor protection scheme (95 %, I think). You have no such protection when investing in shares: if the share price goes down and you sell at that point, you will lose money. Share prices are constantly fluctuating, so the best strategy is to buy shares in strong companies (such as BP or Shell) at a good price and hold the shares until you need the money. The skill is in understanding what a good price is. Take a look at the products and information on www.finysis.net. Best regards. |

That's 1500USD more or less, buy a CD. I think its to little to invest. But if you want to work buy a template and get affiliated with a good product and launch it. |

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.

It really depends on whether you want your money to be accessible at short notice or not and there are various options ranging from a high interest savings account to buying shares to investing in bonds to foreign currency exchange etc.. If you have a bank account best speak to onme of their Personmal Bankers as they areexperts and can advise you what is available that fits your particular situation and desires best. |
