Common stocks with Fidelity and Wells Fargo brokerage accounts. There are some awesome opportunities right now that could make me rich when the economy bounces back. We have not seen these types of opportunities for years.

You can never go wrong with real estate as long as you do not buy a property that is over valued.

Having a plan is the "safest" way to go. It's called an "asset allocation". Many books and articles can assist you in doing this. Having an Asset Allocation is more important than which stocks, Mutual Funds, Bonds, etc that you pick.

One book to start with is;
Mutual Funds For Dummies

another;
Investing For Dummies

As an example. If you were willing to take some high risk position... The ETF "GLD", (which is a cheap way to buy gold) could be a way to go. I'd limit my portfolio exposure to about .05% (one half of one percent........ absolutly no more).

On the other hand I might encourage most people to have 25% of their portfolio in International stocks (maybe 50% of that in "Growth" and 50% in "Value")...... but that would be part of your asset allocation calculations.

The "rate of return" will be a function of the "asset allocation". the higher the anticipated rate... the higher the risk.

Good luck.

You made one bad choice.... asking strangers (whose qualifications and motives can never be known).

You made one good choice.... you're asking questions......

One last thought;
Never use a bank or insurance company for investments. Fees are generally way too high (and hidden).... advice tends to be mediocre.

We might see BSE Sensex support at 4,227.50 (+/- 0.1% variation) and NSE S&P CNX Nifty support at 1,292.20 (+/- 0.1% variation) in July / August 2009. INVEST at that time in the following scrips.

Reliance Industries (RELIANCE), Infosys Technologies (INFOSYSTCH), ICICI Bank (ICICIBANK), Larsen & Toubro (LT), Housing Development Finance Corporation (HDFC), Bharti Airtel (BHARTIARTL), Tata Steel (TATASTEEL) and Oil & Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC).

INVEST 16% in First Scrip, 15% in Second Scrip, 14% in Third Scrip and so on of your total fund or

INVEST 12% in each scrip of your total fund.

It is best to have a diversified portfolio consisting of cash, equity, bonds, gold and mutual funds.

For information on investing choices check this link out: http://www.arihantcapital.com/knowledge-centre/investing-basics.aspx#investment

As for rate of return, no one knows what rate of return you would get except for your money in band fixed deposit.

Other than that the returns are not assured and cannot be predicted. But generally equity investment gives the highest return and is the best place to invest your money if you can invest for long-term, over 5 years.

This is a very good time to invest in stocks of good companies. You can start some investment through SIP of mutual funds.To know more about SIP click here: http://www.arihantcapital.com/knowledge-centre/systematic-investment.aspx

Safety in investing is primarily a function of asset allocation, secondarily diversification and finally company specific.

Allocate assets among:
1. Short term investments- 0 to 5 years, savings, money market, CD
2. Fixed income investments- investment grade corporate bonds structured into a 5 to 12 year ladder.
3. Common stocks- companies with growing profits

Expected rates of return(currently):
1. 0%- 5%
2. 5%-15%
3. 4%-28%
