2. Investing money means to use your money in such a manner that it has a reasonable expectation and probability of making more money for you. You don't mention how much money you have, but you could investigate penny stocks. These are stocks that cost from tenths of a cent to something under a dollar, such as forty, fifty, eighty-five cents per share. They are the easiest to buy on a limited investment and offer the greatest probabilities for a high return on the investment.

5. At your young age, it's refreshing to see you care about important matters like helping out your family and looking to get returns better than what savings accounts pay in interest. Go about this slowly. Don't put too much into anything. Spread the little money you have into various places...a little in savings (for that rainy day), some for the family, and if any is left over, begin investing with a small amount on a regular basis. Try about $60.00 a month in a stock purchase account, or maybe look to join a stock club. Remember, only those who set aside a certain amount every month and stick to a plan...succeed. Your long journey begins with that first step...make it the right step.
