What to do with inheritance?
Never thought I'd have to ask this. but I need some intelligent advice. My father passed away last year, leaving my mother who was very reliant on him with a lot of financial things to take care of. She's got money invested in some funds (which she can't touch), she has a large sum from company stocks, life insurances, etc. My question is, what are some suggestions for some safe ways for her to invest her money so she doesn't get screwed by anybody else (taxes, accountants, etc). What would you recommend to somebody who also needs some added income (she's 50 and never had a job in her life, just takes care of my children) and doesn't want anything too risky. She basically just would like to invest and live off of the income that comes in from the investments if any way possible. What would someone recommend.

The situation you describe requires the help of an independent financial planner. The CFP can examine the entire financial situation, assess your mother's needs, and offer advice on how best to meet the goals that have to be set to ensure your mother can survive adequately with the resources left to her.

There are financial advisors who work for free, but they guide their clients into investments from which they earn commissions. They often look after their own interests rather than their client's. A certified financial planner who charges a fee for services, is going to be less biased and can offer more objective advice.

I would strongly suggest you seek the advise of a "paid" financial planner. One who is paid with a fee and NOT commissions. You can ask your accountant or friends if they can suggest someone they have dealt with. But please don't seek the advise of a stock broker, they work on commissions and will sell you products you don't need. best of luck

I would go to the local bank you use and invest the money in CDs. It isn't the highest return (interest) but it is safe and she won't have to worry about commission salesmen or women.

If your mother has a large amount of money to invest, >$1,000,000 then she could put it into a money market account and earn in the high 4% range. That would give her close to $50,000 of passive income a year. Is that enough for her?

Low tax or no tax - fixed income investments. CD's , or "Muni" bonds if you have some bond experience. Money market exposure might be good if she has a substantial amount of money.

Sounds like you need to find a financial planner ... you could handle this through Vanguard but it sounds like you'll still need someone to consult with on taxes. Vanguard will also send her a monthly check from the interest and dividends.

Even at 50 she still should have at least 50% of her money in an S&P 500 Fund or other stock mutual funds and the rest could be in mutual bond funds for monthly income.

I'd recommend her getting out of individual stocks asap.

Go talk to an accountant and a tax attorney. Talk to several if you don't trust them. Call if you feel too pressured in person. There are great ways to invest money but you have to know your way around investments and taxes.

She should try to invest in stocks. If she gets good she might even be able to double her money in a year.

This website will tell you everything you need to know to trading the market.
