Tericka | What's the best investment for me? |
After getting a well deserved bounus for work, I paid off all my credit cards, but there is still a decent amount left (around 10k), I'm 21 and I want to invest the money into something smart. Should I open an IRA, or is there something better? |

You already have several answers suggestion a Roth IRA. That is an excellent choice, but only if you will not be needing the money until 59 1/2. It is a retirement account. There are some exceptions. You should place some of the 10k where you can get to it in an emergency, maybe 3k. It is always a good idea to have some cash available. ING has internet savings accounts that pay 5% with direct transfer to your checking account.
You are young so you can afford to be a little aggressive with your money in the hopes that it will yield a very good return over the long term. Assuming that you would invest 7k, separate it into 3 about equal piles and invest 1 part in small cap stocks. Royce Funds has a great selection of them and a terrific track record yielding about 13% annually over the long term. 1 part in a value stock fund. There is a decent index fund that is a value fund--EFV. It has done extremely well so far with a 30% annual return. But do not expect that to continue. 10 to 12% would be an excellent return. The last part in a growth stock index fund or mutual fund. FXI would fall into that category. It is a China index fund. Up about 38% this year. |

Open a Roth IRA. It is the best. You put up to $4000 every year (soon limit will be raised $5000). Can buy just about any stock, bond, or mutual fund. And whatever these grow to, when you withdraw at age 60, you don't have to pay any tax on it at all. IT'S ALL YOURS. Can't withdraw before then though -- if you do you'll be hit with penalties. But they make exceptions for early withdraws used to buy a house or pay a child's college tuition. |

Invest in people and you'll be surprised how great your life gets. I'm not trying to be smart here. Love will give you a better return in the long run. |

It's great that you got a bonus! Yahoo! Spread it around. You will need usually a minimum of $2000 or so for an IRA. Do you have a raindy day acct? Do you own or want to own real estate? Good luck and investigate all your choices. |

1st - congrats. 2nd - do NOT talk to a paid invetment advisor as not worth it + you have too little. 3rd - Yes to an Ira but must be in equities. too young to even think of putting the IRA money in a bank. Schawb.com, tdameritrade - wherever. Can buy index funds for now & forget them. Perhaps a bit of gold mutual fund as well but no rush. Key is to start now before this year ends so can continue on next yr. Can use remaining money to set up emergency fund but be ready to set up a non-ira investment acct when you can. |

I would suggest an IRA, as well as a money market mutual fund. That way, you are setting up some for the short term as well as the long term |

I'd recommend a Roth IRA. It's 'after tax' $$. You could add about $4k a year (don't quote me on that number) and you can start to invest in something that will compound over decades. Talk to a 'real' investment broker (you know, the Smith Barney, Merrill Lynch, etc).
congrats and good luck
How about taking some of that $$ and rewarding yourself??? |

Invest some of it in S&P500. Also put some away in a CD account with a high yield. CCB I think was doing something like 5% |
