    If your whole savings is only $10k, you should probably keep it in savings. It is nice to have access to liquidity should there be an emergency.

    Well I met a guy last week whose neighbor was losing big on his mortgage payments. Not his equity tho. The owner owed 34000 and the house was worth 110,000. He had it on the market and empty for 10 months so he just wanted out. I gave this guy $8,000 for down payment on the total of $35000 mortgage that he was pre approved for. He then re mortgaged the house for $60,000 and gave me $12500 ROI. I gave him 30 days and took the title to his truck. So I am saying that there are honest genuine young entreprenuers out there who you can use your money, their income, and there credit to combine for good returns. Especially right now. Start looking. Do you have a friend that has good income good credit wants to buy a house but has no down payment. I wont be asking for your money but I do have many similar and good ideas. If you want to write me tell me Do you own your own house or would you also be an asset in filling a house for your partner?

    If you don't know what to do with it, this isn't the place to find out.

    I have an idea of what I want to do with it, but its always good to hear what other like minded individuals have to say.....so if you don't have anything valid to contribute then maybe this thread isnt for you.

    My point is very valid, if you dont know exactly how to invest 10k of your hard earned money then maybe the savings account is where it belongs. Im not attacking you, im trying to help you make a good decision. No one on here knows the best place for your money, only you do.

    Is this risk captial?

    I had the same questions a few months ago. My cash was risk capital though. If that's the case, check out TradeGoose.com. It's a FOREX trading system. I've been at it for awhile and it's doing very well.

    It doesn't require much FOREX knowledge to use, but I recommend learning as much as you can about FX trading before jumping in.

    Hmm, im sure there is a lot of stuff you could do with 10k, buy a car, buy stocks, go to the strip club (and make it rain), invest in an idea, you know what is best for your situation.

    Buying a car wouldn't be an investment, invest in something that has a good ROI. I'd say invest in buying domains, they are like "real estate". Keep them with you for a year and sell them off for a profit.

    I need more info. Do you have a career/job? Can you qualify for a loan? How is your credit? You can leverage yourself and use this 10k to obtain more funds and have a bigger investment. Let me know.

    CASH GIFTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    lol jk



    sorry I had to


    Honestly it's too hard to say because their are so many variables and so many different things that can work (or can't work). You have to judge this kind of stuff for yourself.

    Me personally, I would:

    1. Buy a house, pref a duplex if I could qualify with that kind of downpayment.
    2. Buy from China for resale.
    3. Invest it in a couple web projects I have been meaning to get to.
    4. Invest in more marketing for my online projects I already have.

    So what do you have going on that you could use this kind of money for?

    If you don't have anything on your plate at the time you need to do some brainstorming.

    I wouldn't trust a website that rips stock photographies. They don't even have $3 bucks to buy the photo? Look closely and you'll see the white watermark lines, at least if they didn't wanna spend those miserable $2, they should have Photoshop the image and hide those watermark lines.
