losing your $5000 is the last thing you'll ever imagine. so don't lose it!
to begin, you must have financial goals as well as risk tolerance. from there, it is easier for you to start looking at which investment vehicle suit your risk profile with the return you wanted.

Well thats a good start a 401 k plan with a company like:
the rock, td waterhouse, scottstrade, buy bonds, city bonds can be a good investment, also there are federal and state bonds you can purchase.
Buy a house, put it in a cd account with intrest!
talk to your bank about investment opportunities! |

put 100$ on a savings acount at the bank and watch your money grow...i mean dont spend it....and depending on your interest %rate in about 5 years youll......probably end up close to that |

Well there are variables to consider here such as how long do you expect to leave it alone? or how much risk are you willing to take? what will you do if you lose the money? (all investment has risk of complete loss)
I would suggest (if you are leaving it in for over 5 years) that you invest a good mutual fund that invest in stocks. If you are going to leave it for retirement and this is cash in the bank I would suggest a Roth IRA because it will pay out the money you make tax free. This is something congress put in order to help people to save but you have to wait until retirement to get to it. It is a great way to save and not be able to get to it.
Enjoy and remember you should call a professional who can help you on the way. I would try Ameriprise they are who I use. I have an advisor and he does a great job. |

Now that the market is slow, I suggest you buy property and and rent it out....most owners are giving you the closing costs just to get rid of rental property....as soon as the market is back up...in say two years, you will have doubled your home value....for example...
you buy a $50,000.00 home and rent it out for two years...at the end of that time you could sell the home for $100,000.00.
your profit after taxes would be $35,000.00. and your original $5000.00 would have been paid back to you slowly by claiming a rental business on your income taxes. |

Put it into a savings account and get interest. Stock markets are risky because you can lose some and even all your money like people did in 1929 like my great grandfather. In Florida, there's a Suntrust bank right inside Walmart with 3% interest rate. The rate goes up with the amount of money you have. This bans is good because you can deposit/withdrawl money at the same place you shop. The interest for me is 3% every 3 months but I only have $460 in it. The rate should be higher with the amount of money you have. If you get enough money you don't have to get a job you can just live off the interest and the money. |

Vanguard.com is ideal for long term investors who want to learn about mutual funds, index funds, and exchange-traded-funds (ETFs). Trading funds is less risky than trying to trade "individual" stocks.
Unless you plan on spending everyday of your life looking at stock charts trying to determine the best time to get in and out of "individual" stocks, I would look into some sort of fund. |

Stocks!!! Do your home work a little help watch mad money he is great. I have taken his advice and did some homework on the stocks I am making some money. I really want tell you what's hot right know but I can't. Watch the show or listen to it. A safe way to make money with your money is CD put it away for about a year or 6 months. Do your home work for that to some banks give more than others. Make sure that if the bank closes you are protected by the goverment. Meaning they will pay you your money. Good Luck |

Get an account with an online discount brokerage (Scottrade is great). The easiest way would be to go to a local office and open it in person. It shouldn't cost you anything and from there you can trade as much as you like for only $7 a trade. (If you don't know anything about investing in stocks, let me know and I'll fill you in.)
Then I would suggest buying a good company and holding for the long-term. It's much easier and safer than trying to make money off of short-term trading, especially for someone who doesn't have a lot of experience trading stocks.
And as far as what to invest in goes I don't really want to tell a specific stock to buy, but I will tell you that I'm investing in Apple. |
