I am a female so I can think of a lot of things to do with 10k other than CD's. Can you be a little more specific with your question? You may get some really weird answers with a question that broad.

I just started with this online company and I am so stoked about it. The people who followed the program last year made 220% return on their money(there is no guarantee it will stay at that but its up a lot this year as well). It trades foreign exchange currency but its built on the hedge concept. It also leverages your money 400:1. So if you have 1000 dollars your investing its like 400,000 on the market and you gain interest on that 400k. You can try it out for 2 weeks with fake money and you will see how cool it is. If someone averages 12 percent a month on 5k for 6 years it will be 19 million dollars.

It depends on your risk tolerance. I'm guessing that you want some investment information. Start at a website like IBD.com ( that's investors business daily), Yahoo finance is a terrific resource, so is Bloomberg. IBD has an education program called CANSLIM. Educate yourself because there are a lot of alternatives- Stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and my favorite-Exchange Traded Funds. They work like mutual funds, but don't have the fees- they are groups of investments with a common theme- and they trade like stocks. Before you put a penny in any market, trade on paper. You have to have a plan- enter a market when it reaches a certain price, how much will you risk on each transaction, what if the market takes a dive, how long will you stay in? When should you take profits?Paper trade until you realize what your tolerance for risk is, see how the markets behave, and give yourself at least 3-6 months before you back it up with your cash.There are plenty of good books on investing, too. The best, old and classic was written by Benjamin Graham. Even if you don't like Jim Cramer from Mad Money, his books give you excellent guidelines for investing strategies, timing, and show you how to be disciplined, even if you are feeling desparate or hysterical when the market turns. So, that's my recommendation: learn all you can, and don't ask anyone for stock tips! You never know what kind of bad information you're getting. You need to learn how to read financials, and that is easy. It just takes time, so don't rush. Your 10K is precious, and you want it to grow, not lose it because you haven't done the prep work necessary to be successful.Good luck.

ETFs are cheaper than mutual funds. ETFs have very low annual expenses, nearly 20 basis points or 0.2% less. As against this, actively managed mutual funds show average expenses exceeding 135 basis points (1.35%). This does not include the extra 2% - 5% as loads, 12(b)-1 marketing fees, transactions costs, and soft dollar expenses mutual funds, passed on to you but never informed, except in very fine print that nobody cares to read.
