    Hi Henry,

    Great question. I am not a pro investor, but I know the basics. There are a few ways to get started investing.

    1) Stocks : Stocks are always a good part of anyone's portfolio, as their return is almost always much higher than any savings rate in a bank account, CD, or bond.

    2) Mutual Funds: Mutual funds are a group of stocks, but you can buy a mutual fund just as a stock. These are great, because if one stock takes a hit, not all will be lost since it is a group of stocks!

    3) Real Estate: Investing in real estate, and then renting is good for profit. Or, you could purchase shares of a REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust). It kind of works as a stock, but differently.

    4) Bonds and CDs: These are the lowest rate of return on investment, but also the most secure. You will not earn much, but you will earn.


    You can find Options 1 through 3 on many online brokerage sites, such as ScotTrade, TD Ameritrade, etc. There are many sites to get started on.

    My advice? In the beginning, just invest a little to play around with, not a lot, in case you lose it. The best way to learn is to start doing something on your own. Make educated decisions of course, but you will learn in no time.

    Any interest in one particular investment? I realize I was a bit broad, but there are many investment types. Hope I could help!

      Investing in the stock market offers the possibility of obtaining high compounding rates of return. There is no other medium online aside from it that offers the opportunity of earning 10% or more per year by just letting your money do the work for you. Obviously the larger the compounding rate of return, the more money you end up making. In the current age of low interest rates, keeping your money in a savings account doesn’t pay.

      I recommend you do research and look for currently undervalued stocks that have had good historical growth rates.

        If you're new to investing, start with mutual funds, which avoids you're having to pick individual stocks. This strategy works best in the long term but watch out for "loads" (commissions) or they'll eat into your totals.

          If you have more experience, you can sign up with brokers; binary options are a relatively new investment vehicle in which a trader can bet on the asset displaying several price behaviours or not displaying such behaviours, and get a payout depending on whether the asset behaviour was correctly predicted or not.

            Stocks is one of choices. long term or short term or daytrading , is up to your goal and life style. And if you want to get big benefit from it, you need to research over and over.

            many people can trade stock but few can get big cash from stocks.

            oh, I don't know invest in gold is good or bad choice but I knew that its price is decreasing.

              I prefer to invest in stocks and mutual funds probably but due to lack of knowledge in stock market I will prefer to invest in mutual funds because they will make use of my money in proper place to give me good returns. I need not have to worry about fluctuations happening in the market for stocks and bother to stay active with the updates of price my mutual fund company will take care of all these and I will just enjoy returns all I have to keep me updated from would be just the current situation of my mutual fund points that I have and the points that the company has sold.

                You can invest it in to stocks. However, you need to learn it first so you don't waste your time and your money of course.

                  I like the idea of investing in real estate and I hope one day I have the funds to buy and sell property. I think I would be really good at it.

                    I really enjoy the strides that online banks are making! USAA is a great bank for military families and veterans. They have a very broad investment options. It's very easy to open accounts, monitor your progress, and it even offers notifications for better strategies if your investments aren't maintaining profit.

                      You could invest in Stocks and Bond. Real stock is such a slow item to get benefited.

                            You certainly can lose money in real estate.

                              Hello,

                              I think investing in financial sector is a good way to gain profit. You should start your investment with some little amount and buy some stocks then sell them at a good price.
