1. If you have no debt, make sure you stay that way.
2. Education is a good pay off. "According to The College Board, college graduates earn 80% more on average than high school graduates."
I read your bio, stick to Business Management. If you can also get an MBA in finance, accounting, or economics, that would be a big help to your business career. BA's/ BS degrees don't seem to go as far as they used to.

3. PLEASE do NOT invest in GOLD, or any invest website scheme.
Historically, Gold is the 2nd worst investment after diamonds.

For long term investors, I would suggest "Dollar Cost Averaging" using major index funds such as:
S&P 500 Index
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S&P_500
Mid Cap 400 Index
http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=^MID&d=t
Russell 2000 Index

At 19, I would contribute the max each year to a (no fee) Roth IRA.

Nothing to do with stocks, that's a small fish'es losing game.. :(
Honestly 10K is chump change when it comes to investing anymore, your best bet is to use it to pay off all your credit card dept and not pay them 19% interest every month! If you're debt free, let it sit in a CD that will be there when you need it. That way you won't lose any of it, in the stock markets etc you put it all at risk and it could be gone tomorrow. |

If I had that kind of money, I would go to college to become a stock broker and be able to advise another people with their money and at the same time I would be able to see which stocks are a winner and invest in those because I know exactly what is happening with that particular stock. |

Unless you want to give it to me to take to Vegas so I can double or triple it, I would say gold also unless you really know what you are doing buying and selling stocks. |

dont get sucked into trying to manage your own stocks... waste of money unless you are already on your A game, because there are tens of thousands of people that are already at their pinacle and will just crush you (no offense, I learned the hard way). Currently Herritage Financial Services makes a regular 12% on money invested (you put in 100, you get 112) and they only take 1% as there cut
Put in 10k and you are pretty much going to get back 11,000
couldnt be easier

Let me preface my answer by stating that I'm a realist who also highly advocates the transcendentalist movement. That being said here is what I would do with 10k, even though I could give five compelling reasons why to invest in gold:
First, head strait to your local liquor store and purchase at least $500 in scratcher lottery tickets. I prefer the crossword puzzle ones because they take longer to complete thus allowing for the longest duration of false hope. You might want to spend $5 after on malt liquor to help swallow your loss. Next I would probably buy a Segway people mover. This will make traveling around easier while you complete the rest of my steps because I'm assuming your obese like most Americans and despise physical activity.
You are probably left with around $7495.65 and slightly crooked smile from your new people mover and slightly inebriated state. Take the rest of the money, find a commodity trader, and buy rice. China has so many people living there its ridiculous. I am also a math major and have calculated that their population is growing at such a high rate they should deplete their rice stock at a far faster rate than can be renewed. Right before China declares war on all nations harboring rice storage you sell yours and make a killing.
I will be expecting a commission of %35 for my financial advice.

I would learn how stocks work and actively trade it. I inherited $60,000 a few years ago and learned stocks. Ive been day trading ever since. I split it up into groups of about $5,000 and buy 6 or 7 stocks a day ($5,000 each) and sell them either the same day or the next day. My goal everyday is to make $300 and thats pretty easy to do when you cut it up like that and buy stocks in a $9-$17 range. The person who said gold is right though. If you are too nervous about stocks and just want it to sit there, the first person is right. I would stay away from feebay. I was a former powerseller. They dont want sellers there anymore,they are slowly driving us off because the new CEO signed some deals with large companies like buy.com and is pushing smaller sellers out....basically they are phasing everybody out to make way for these big companies that will cause less problems for them and bigger money. All the changes they have been making this year have driven at least 100,000 sellers off. Just look at the forums on ebay....in seller central....everybodys angry and boycotting. |
