Short-Term Investments?

Question

I have about $4k/month extra income which I am looking to invest and I am looking for decent sources of income. I'm looking about 75% very low risk and the rest medium risk. I'm looking for investments up to 1 year in duration. Any recommendations?

Answer 1

I suggest you start by looking into the forex market (trading foreign currencies). There's minimal risk involved and so far I've gotten a fairly decent return. You can read more about it at http://marketstock.net

Answer 2

For a very low risk go with a 12 month CD or a Treasury Bill.

You may be able to buy a Municipal Bond that will be maturing soon, the interest earned on Muni's are not taxable at the Federal level.
