And how would I start? Should I just call up Merryl Lynch or Charles Shwab or will they not even talk to me? I want to invest some money and I'm willing to take the risk, which is why its only 1000 to 2000 bucks but I don't actually want to lose it. I just want to invest it in a smart way that WILL increase upon its return.

  1. Most Investment companies won't talk to you unless you have $100K or more. I don't know how old you are so I'm not sure what would be the best type of investment for you. Do you want long term? Mutual Funds and Bonds are safe. Or did you want to buy and sale stocks? Invest smart, find someone from Primerica Financial Services. They can help you with Mutual Funds, Bonds and Money Mkt. If you want to take a risk, you have to study, read and learn market strategies before investing in stocks. They're aren't really any investment companies that are going to take your money your on your own.


  2. Do your research and invest in individual stocks.  Read annual SEC filings for companies you are interested in.  10K and 20F.  Summaries of these can be found here:

    That is your best bet right now.  As your nestegg grows you can look at riskier investments like options.  Which will offer a higher return.
