Because you seem to have many questions and plan to hold that money a long time go with Mutual Funds. Don't put it all into stocks but the majority put into stocks mutual funds.
Go with a company like Vanguard because their expenses are some of the best in the country. You do not need to pay a financial expert just study about these funds and buy them directly from Vanguard and only pay the expenses.
Go with Index Mutual Funds because their expenses are even lower. Get a Total Stock Mutual Fund, a Total Bond mutual fund and maybe a Money Market fund. That will balance your total amount. |

You need to find a local RELIABLE investment advisor rather than asking people on line. |

You may invest in a mutual fund that tracks an index. I would invest in a spider however. Try QQQQ which is the 100 largest companies in the NASDQ exchange. The advantage of this is that it does not create tax liability by issuing capital gains and you can dispose of it with market timing like a stock. |

invest in stock market, but watch for the company that pays good dividend every month or quartely. Remember, dont invest your money in ONE POT! if the first goes bad, the 2nd might not. |

Government bonds. Get one with a good intrest rate. Some even offer 10% per year. |

I would look at the foreign currency exchange market (Forex). With $2 trillion dollars a day being traded in the market it is the most liquid and the most active market on earth.
That was the good part...the bad part is that because there is the potential to make very attractive profits there is also an imbedded element of risk. Those that look at Forex as "the next step after online poker" are doomed. Most traders that enter the Forex arena lose because they have not taken the time to learn how to properly enter and exit the market so as to minimize risk and maximize profits.
Being young with a bit of time on your side I would suggest you at least look into it as a part of your overall investment strategy.
I would be happy to send you a report that a good friend of mine wrote that does a good job explaining the Forex market and some interesting ways to participate.

If you are willing to take slightly more risk, Forex is the way to go.
If you cant watch volatility in your account, try Mutual funds or CD's.
Buzz me if you need help with any of the above.
The main thing is to stay away from the hype. Never do HYIP. Sure way to lose all your money. |

I would suggest investing in me. I have four kids and would use the money to establish a trust in your name. Think about it...the money could sit in some old account somewhere drawing interest and being pawed by some old banker...or...you could let me have it and my children would think fondly of you and come to see you when you are old. And being such good kids, they would even bring you candy and sit awhile and tell you how the 20K helped them get a foot up in life and do such great things as cure cancer and learn to play the violin. Don't be selfish...share that money with a positive future by investing in my children. |

I think you should look at India for investing that kind of money, investing in the Index itself will get you unheard of returns. Good luck. (Look at websites like moneycontrol.com for more info.) |

I think mutual funds are the best investments. You should go with mutual funds. Pick two or three of them who have gave the highest interests for a 5 to 10 years period.
