What should i invest my 10k in to get the most return?
I have 10k and I want to invest that money into something where i would make the most return. I don't know too much about stocks so i don't think going risky would be a great idea, but i want to get a decent return within a couple of years. What do i do?

Cap one money market account. has good interest rate and is secure and has no risk lke a regular saving account. or you could put it into a CD account. Both good for the interest over a regular saving account.
both have advantages and dis-advantages. like every thing do your home work

Forex, stocks and a bit less risky equity mutual funds are good for the long haul, not for "a couple of years," so I agree with Mac Boswell's suggestion of money market or CDs. On line banks are where you will find the best rates. Check out www.bankrate.com for details.

So you nee dto be definite. What is a "decent return in a couple of years" in your eyes. If you ask my cousin's husband he'd say about 350% but he's a shark. Your bank manager would say 10% and a stock broker/pusher about 30% possibly.

Depending on what you want/need to get back and whether you could live with a negative return if the chance came up for a massive gain then you can set about filtering all your options.

So what you do is go to a good financial planner, share with them all of your financial goals and current financial position and listen their advice - if it's any good then act on it. It may be that you really need to put that money aside for a rainy day or pay down debt rather than investing it.

On a course that I went on a few years ago they pointed out that truth that is: "There's no such thing as a risky investment - there are only risky investors".

If you do not feel comfortable with individual stocks, I would recommend a solid mutual fund that covers a broad range of S&P 500 stocks. I currently invest in the Vanguard 500 Index Fund (VINX) and have been happy. It probably won't return much more than a steady 10-15% return but you are avoiding a lot of risk. A constant 10-15% annual return is going to really grow over the long haul...especially if you can continue to make contributions over time!

everyone wants "the most return" but not "going risky" - then you say a decent return within a couple of years. Stocks and mutual funds are investments - for the long term- say at least 5 years or so. The stock market can go down 20 or more % in a year for a couple of years. So it is risky in the short term. If you can hold on for 5 years of so it usually makes a good gain.

So for a good return with some risk and you would be in the investment for at least 5 years - I recommend the Vanguard Star fund. Has some large, small and international stocks and some bonds.

If you want to take the money out in less than 5 years go for CD's or Vanguard Money Market Prime

I am currently offering a Joint Venture Opportunity in the real estate market, I am a real estate investor seeking private lender's to fund some of my projects in the state of Florida
I focus on foreclosure's and rehabs as well as bank owned
properties. I buy them at a discount and resell it for market value, I will pay 18% ROI (return on investment) in as little as 6 to 12 months and your investment will be secured with a
1st. lien on it. meaning that once the property is sold you would get paid 1st. if interested in this great opportunity to make huge interest on your investment, call Jose at
863-651-7045 for more info
