Answer 1

The first thing you should do is educate yourself about the facets of the stock market. Once you have done that, you need identify what are your goals for trading. In other words, you need to develop a personal trade plan.

A trade plan defines where you are, where you want to be and how you will get there. The importance of a trade plan is it takes the emotions out of trading. It's a system you develop according to your risk level. You are no longer trying to trade the entire market. Instead you focus on select patterns and indicators to leverage opportunities in the market.

Now, as far as a broker, I would recommend you talk to any and everyone to help you develop your own system. Initially, many traders use stock pick services or brokers. I have no problems with that all, but you need to know what they are trading and why. It's all about making educated decisions.

I joke with my dad now. He's a US Steel retiree. His broker advised him to hold X from over $100 and finally sold @ $27. Now of course US Steel has returned to prominence. What's my point? Nothing wrong with brokers, but you cant count on other people to make decisions for you. You should use them as opinions and let your trade plan tell you if they are aligned with your risk level.

Answer 6

I say diversify into different vechiles. Maybe spread it out evenly over 8-10 differeent investments. This will minimize your risk.

Answer 7

I am not sure how you would go about doing this, but in the U.S. you could buy a "CD" (cash deposit) in a bank that usually has around a 5% profit.  

Answer 8

this is not the place to ask. you should ask a professional about investment choices. for example, a bank will have financial advisers who can guide you through the process.

as for the nature of the investment, it highly depends on the risk you are willing to take. the higher the return the higher the risk.

and don't believe anyone who promise you very high returns.
