IIf you dont need the money for at least ten years an index fund would be fine. Unless you're in a high tax bracket municipal bonds may not be a good idea. A short term taxable bond fund may be better. They are less vulnerable to interest rate changes.

Mallory, you should better invest in business. I've invested in my friend's business. He pays me 1% monthly (fixed 12 percent a year)

No, not right now. The market is too volatile, and you can wind up paying capital gains, even if your principal goes down, on a mutual fund. Look for a good tax-free municipal bond. You will get fixed interest, not have to pay taxes, and be better off without the volatility. Good luck.

Make sure you take a few hundred dollars and use it for yourself now. Give youself a treat, I'm sure you deserve it. Aside from that, all I can tell you is to educate youself on investing. If you are uncomfortable picking an investment look for a low risk mutual fund or simply talk to someone. Aside from that you should take a another $100 and use it to start an internet business for yourself that will earn you passive automated income just like your investment. I also suggest you take $2,000 and start a roth IRA. The sooner you start saving for retirement the sooner you can retire. Ask questions, research, and make money. Too many people I know don't want to learn how money is made and kept for wealth building, which is sad. If you can learn financial freedom at a early age then you won't have to work as long or as hard and you will be able to enjoy life. Hope that helps.

Best Wishes,

I gotta say, when I was 18 I also inherited $10,000. I ended up paying off student loans with it.

Today I have well over $10,000, and I would not put any of it it into the stock market right now. You'd be better off putting it into a CD if nothing else.

Whatever you decide to do with it, just remember: if you lose your money, you can get it back. You can't get your time back, though.

Don't go all in at once. Use a small increment of shares to begin with and add as it drops.
I'd buy some dia, spy for the long term hold.

You should talk to a financial advisor (your bank or credit union provides this service) and they will take into account your current income level, your life status (are you working or are you still a student? Do you plan to go to college?) your hopes and dreams (do you want to travel, to start a business?) and all those other sorts of things that will impact on their recommendations for you.
