Energy is a pretty good " product"...Canada is a pretty friendly neighbor.
Canadian Royal Trusts are companies in the oil/nat gas business that pay MONTHLY dividends amounting to about 13% or more annually.
Example: HTE is priced at $ 24.45 a share...you could buy 1000 and have some change... each month it would earn $ 300.00 ( added to your account)...$ 3600. per year. ( 3600 divided by 24450 equals 14.7... 14.7% is your annual return) That could be " income" ..or you could re-invest during the year at any time you see any kind of price " dip".
If , along with the dividends, the share price should also go up, you would be "growing " money in two ways.
...but, it could also go down. You have to decide whether it is safe or not. Like I said to start...energy? Canada?...it's safe enough for me.
P.S. HTE is one of about ten or twelve energy companies that operate as trusts... look them all over .

First off, don’t discount that 25 grand. It may not be much now; but if you could get 15% a year, by the time you were 65 it would be worth 400 grand plus.

So, then you have to ask yourself, “If I had $400,000 of my own money to invest, would I really be seeking advice from strangers off the internet?”

I thought not.

So, my suggestion would be to start with a couple books. Investing For Dummies is a great place to start. (Really, .. I mean it. If you’ll listen to this stranger off the Internet…)

Then, start reading articles off some of the financial pages, like at Yahoo, or Google,….

Do the reasearch yourself, learn a few things, then come back in 6 months or so and see if you can’t give yourself a better answer than you got here.

After all, it could be worth a half a million bucks to you.

If you don't want to lose a cent of your cash, the best thing to do is to find a decent bank that gives you interest that keeps up with inflation. Banks are the second safest option. The most fool proof option available is govt bonds. Unless the govt becomes worthless, your cash won't disappear. The two ways I mentioned are basically very low-yielding, but the cash is safe in almost any situation. I highly don't suggest putting cash into bonds. Its not worth it.

Then if you don't mind risk losing your money, try out the stock market. The stock market is basically the most high yielding investment out there, but it comes with high risk. Currently, resource stocks have been doing fairly well. The yields are fairly high. I've made a 20% gain with my gold stock in less than 3 weeks!


Money Expert
There are lot's of great options.
If you don't know any successful business to invest in then the best and safest investment is putting your $25,000 into a high-yield account overseas at 12% per year compounded annually. You will have $77,646 in 10 years.

Best of luck!

Dividend-paying stocks are the best place for income. Find out why, http://dividend-growth.blogspot.com/.

CD's down at the bank, would be safest.

But my goodness, you should be investing for growth, and not income. You're 45 yrs old and only have 25k saved for the future?? Unless you plan on living on social security, I suggest you put this 25k into the stock market. And I further suggest you contribute to it as much as you can.

At your age, you need to get off your duff & invest agressivly for your future. Otherwise, plan on having a meager retirement.

You can invest in mutual funds only half part of amount, another half part, you must deposit in banks, and also "you must hardwork in any way, like get a job in companies, or do small business."

Option One. Purchase a rental property. Use the 25,000 to purchase a home valued at 125,000. (Assuming a 20% down payment of 125,000.) I would make sure that the home I purchased could be rented for more than I paid on the mortgage. Over time, you will no longer have a mortgage but you will still have a steady income flow. Also, from a tax perspective you can claim the interest and depreciation for the rental.

Option Two. I would invest in the market; specifically the banking sector. Historically the market has returned 10% annually. However, after economic slowdowns the return has been much greater. That being said, I would invest in an index fund that follows the financial sector. I would expect a 15 to 20% return on investment over the next 5 years.
