plenoptic_aeon | What's the best way to safely invest in $6000? |
I was given $6000 by someone to help for a down payment on a house. I'm in a good living situation right now but eventually want to move into my own house (maybe in 3 years). What would be the best way to gain interest on this money while I wait until I'm ready to dive into the housing market?

My car loan will be paid off in 2 months, so I also will be able to add to my savings for a home. I'll be able to save more since I can change my auto insurance to the minimum requirements. I'll also fund the savings with the amount I was paying in monthy car payments. |

$6000 isn't a lot to work with, and 3 years isn't a long time. But if you want the most conservative investment, a CD is the best. Shop around, most financial institutions are at about 5% right now. My son just got one, minimum investment 5K, 13 month, 5.15%. Much better than just leaving it in a savings account. Good luck. |

My grandmother gave me some very good advice which I will pass on.
She said the safest place for money is buried in the floor under your bed. This is so that when thieves come looking for valuables in your house they will have difficulties finding the money.
But before you bury the money, cut it into small pieces making it impossible to use. That way when the thieves do find it under the bed, it is no good to them at all.
Pretty clever! Good luck and I hope this helps. |

They have really good interest in CDs these days. If you consider yourself disciplined, I would suggest looking into CD accounts with your bank or credit union. Many have minimun deposits anywhere from 1000.00 and beyond; however, some financial institutions have "easy start" certificates that have minimums deposits as low as 250.00 or no deposit at all (ING Direct -over 5%). You can sit back and relax, pretty much, with CD's; anything else is pretty much like gambling. |

I think that you should just keep saving the legal way. |

Compare interest rates at different banks and credit unions and through it in a CD |

If you were investing long term, I would say, without a doubt, that mutual funds would be the vehicle of preference. But 3 years is too short a period, so go for a CD. Banks are actually competitive to a degree in offering CD rates so shop around to several institutions.
But, also remember that the sooner you put even a nominal amount into a reliable capital growth fund, the better off you'll be long term. If you are the least bit interested, I'd recommend Vanguard mutual funds which are very reliable, cost effective and focus on investor education. |

Dive in now you ninny. You want to pay rent for 3 years and subsidize someone else's investment? |

Stocks, or mutal fund. |

Three years isn't long enough as an investment time frame. Anything you put the money in would have to be very conservative. You won't make that much.
Better to just buy now. |

Hi, if you have time, you can read this text and consider about that.
I have actually had some pretty nice results with this (you may want to check it out if you have time):
http://www.cheil.ws
Go there, view the video, and it explains it all from there.
I can walk you through the process step by step if needed just to make sure you are successful. (Please keep in mind; this is NOT a get rich quick scheme.).
In my opinion, the best thing about this is that it doesn’t require a high startup investment. (Considering you can start for free).
I definitely recommend test driving it.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me on aol email ( elkanahslave@aol.com ) or daum email ( dhkdshdp@hanmail.net ). I'd love to give you more details! Hope This Helps and Good Luck !
Below things are my relative sites.

See your banker. They can advise you on the best alternatives for short-term and long-term high interest yielding investments and financial planning. |

medium caps in a mutual fund are good. but once you invest you want to keep it in the account. commit to your investment. try an american express broker for advise or a banker you feel comfortable with. |

Totally safe? A CD (about 5% interest)
More risky - A mutual fund
Even more risky - Stocks
Totally dumb - Vegas: put it all on red! |

Good for you, do not put it all in one place, consider food, or utilies as everyone needs these. A 3 yr . wait is good as housing is dropping. |

Buy a CD (certificate of deposit). You can probably get around 5% today. You could also invest in a mutual fund or individual stocks, but that is much more risky and you could lose some of your principle (the $6000). |

There is no such thing as a safe investment. The problem is inflation plus taxes. Let's say you are going to be taxed at 28% and the inflation in your state is 5%. You buy a CD at 5% (which is common right now). As you can see, you are just equal to the core inflation of your state and you still have to pay taxes! Even if you found a 7% CD, you would have to pay $378 off of that $1,350 you made. Which makes your total amount $6972, so you made $972 in profit in three years. With inflation, It would take $6,945 to buy what you can for $6,000 today. Now you are up $24 in adjusted money. You are basically staying even at 7% making a whopping $8 (adjusted) per year on average with $6,000. I wouldn't call it an investment as much as protecting your worth. |
