Ideas on good ways to invest money?

Does anyone have any good ideas on how to invest some money I have. I want an investment vehicle that has no potential for loss. Stocks can lose value, mutual funds also... Besides a Certificate of Deposit, a Savings account, or US Treasury Securities, any other ideas?

  2. No potential for loss, limits you to your ideas + money market accounts.
  3. I work in shares and as things are at the moment, even though you can make some decent returns, if you don't know what you're doing i.e. if you don't understand the processes involved i'd steer well clear. A stable economy makes it easier to predict price movements based upon common market forces and thus makes investment a little less risky. In today's climate anything can and usually does happen. Your question indicates otherwise but if you do have money you can afford to lose and want to play the market a little invest in a shares ISA. The current limit is £7,200 per tax year which is more than a standard ISA however there are eligibility criteria for the investments you can select. Although still in decline property is currently a buyers market. No significant return in the short term if you are considering buying to sell but if you rent your property you'll make considerably more money than what your savings will be making sat in the bank. Trends indicate prices are and will continue to fall but i personally think prices will plateau and rise in 2010/11 as more people start spending. If i had the cash i'd invest in land. If you're savvy about your investments money is still out there to be made.
  4. dont ask other people how to do things, go out and do the research. you do not need an MBA, however you do need to do some reading. get some research done. i would recommend reading everything you can on warren buffett and his investment methods, because the guy is a genius
  5. Well almost all investments have a risk to them especially right now in a difficult economy. If there is no risk there is usually no reward. It depends on how much money you have to invest and Like I said, every investment has risk, but some of the risk can be tempered by the value of the investment and if it is tangible. For example you could invest in Real Estate. It is tangible, creates a tax benefit and at the end of the day you always own it. Even in a difficult economy it provides a tangible to place to live. So while it can lose value, it still retains a sense of worth. Zach http://www.greedreviews.com - Empowering investors to find the best financial information on the web.
