I cannot offer any financial advise, because I don't know your financial situation, your time toward retirement, your comfort level of risk, and other financial conditions. Anyone can offer you an investment idea, but you need to learn more about what you are comfortable with in regards to risk, figure out what your goals are for investing on a short term and long term basis. I am including a link that will begin to build the foundation. Then do some homework and call a few different banks or brokerage firms to see what they have to offer in regards to services and fee's etc.. I hope this helps you out. Best wiahes in your investment studies.

I would stick with one "family" of Mutual Funds -all that means is that you buy various types of mutual funds under the same umbrella of one Mutual Fund Company. There are several reasons for that.
You should determine Your own personal relationship to risk/
reward. Take into consideration your age. What you are saving this money for etc.
Morningstar.com
is the leader when it comes to comparing the different mutual funds out there. That's what the Brokers use. Study up on there. They have tons of ways for you to interact and choose the best. All kinds of screening devices. By far your best learning tool!
I wish you the best of luck.
MORNING STAR.COM
p.s. my advice only here-***do not ever buy a proprietary Mut. Fund - by that I mean Mut funds your bank might try to sell
you. (this is hard without naming names) for legal reasons they can not be named after the bank itself, but you should be able to recognize it. Same goes for Insurance Co.'s |

The easiest and safest way is to buy an ETF that represents the S&P 500, the symbol is IVV.
If you want to invest with some "play" money before actually investing the real stuff, go to http://www.top10traders.com - this is a free site that lets you create a portfolio of stocks with $100,000 in "play" money.
Hope this helps. |

More than easy
Make jumbo chocolate covered strawberries with nuts on a popsicle stick. At the mall they are 5$ a chocolate covered strawberry, sell 30 a day each one is 2$ and you will make 60$ a day if you sell all of them. And in a week you will make 420$.
and a month 2,520$
a year 30,240$ damn you could by a house sell like 60 a day
and in a year 60,480$. |

The safest way is probably the indexed CD as suggested by Mickerma. A not quite as safe, but still low risk and with potentially greater returns is a well diversified mutual fund as suggested by Thomas K. As to how and where, the CD if you need the money within 5 years, over 5 years I suggest www.trowepirce.com or www.vanguard.com, maybe one of their Target Retirement funds, a well diversified all-in-one fund. |

Fixed Index Annuities for 75% of your money! Only put 25% of your money directly at risk in the stock market. When and if the 25% grows to 50% of the total, take profits on 25% pay taxes and move the remainder into Fixed Index Annuities. Repeat the process over and over. (Before you do this you should have a 100% liquid cash reserve (mony market account) for emergencies or for major purchases you expect to make in the next 5 year).
Do Not Use Variable Annuities: Total fees in Variable Annuities are 2.00% to 3.50%. Plus all the Investment Risk is Yours and Not the Insurance Company.
Safe Money Places with Tax Advantages for non-qualified money.
Safe Money Places for Qualified Dollars: IRA's, Pension Plan Rollovers, etc.
Only place where you can make Dollars and NOT Lose Dollars trying!
ONLY Annuities are The Best SAFE MONEY places! The three best are the following:
1. Fixed Index Annuities ------Where your account does NOT Decline in Value. -----Where the Interest you earn along the way does NOT Decline in Value. -------Where the interest you earn each year is based ONLY on the Upside of a Stock Index (You would accept a limit on the Upside of say 50% participation in exchange for not having your account decline in value at any point in time, wouldn't you???? I know I would!!!!). Example: S&P 500 Index goes up 30% you Earn Interest at 15% that year. S&P 500 Index goes down 30% you Earn interest at 0% that year and your new index Start Point RESETS at the S&P 500 depressed level. Multiple Indexes and other interest crediting methods are also available. Various Time Periods are Available from 4 Years to 14 Years (The longer you allow this to compound and grow, the higher the Rate of Annualized Return, this is true for any instrument only here you have No Risk of Loss.). To Learn more Visit: http://www.jdsannuities.com/index_annuities
2. Fixed Rate Deferred Annuities - Where you have a wide selections of multi-year guaranteed rates or for 2 years, 3 years or 5 years, most are 5 to 10 year products. To Learn more and see most of the rates for yourself visit: http://www.jdsannuities.com/annuity_rates
3. Immediate Annuities / Income Annuities - For Guaranteed Monthly Income for Life, Joint Life or for a Period of Time: Go here to learn more - http://www.jdsannuities.com/immediate_annuities

Invest in stock mutual funds. Over the long run, the safest funds are those that track the S & P 500 Index. Standard and Poors does all of the selecting of the top companies, and it does not cost you anything. The fees at the mutual fund companies are very low. All they have to do is track the S & P, then buy or sell if any changes are made.
Websites easy to nagivate for info are T Rowe Price, Dreyfus, Fidelity. |

Buy an "Indexed CD" from a broker. Your money is FDIC insured against loss and can participate in stock market gains. |

I would wait to invest for a few more weeks or at least till the CBOE volatility gets below 13. Online trading is the best way I have found for me to trade. Your going to want to get books and set up account before you make your first trade it is the ones that don't study a bit that loose money. |
