Advice on Investing for a 25 year old? I am a 25 yr old married man. Total net income is approx. 80k/yr. My wife has no 401(k)/IRA, but I do have a company matched which i max out and then add on 6% before tax unmatched after that, which totals 12% of my paycheck going into my 401(k). We have our savings, approx 17k in a high interest online savings account. We have a 529 being funded $100 every month for when my wife goes back to school. We also have approx. 35k in mutual funds. Zero credit card/school loan debt and only a car payment on 1 of our 2 cars. We do rent as of now, only because we are "on call" to be transfered out of town within 6 months. Here is my question: We will be coming into approx. 5k in the next month or so and I want some opinions on how to invest it. Stick with mutual funds? Are REITS even worth it with the housing market as it is? I am pretty familiar with mutual funds, but after that, my knowledge is limited. Any advice?

Moving to Canada from UK - Investing advice? My husband and I are moving to Canada in the next couple of years with a decent sum of money. We have been advised to place the money into long-term investments. Obviously we would either keep the money in a British investment or Canadian investment - whichever offers the higher yield. Advice is most welcome! Just to clarify - this isn't a question of which 'country' to invest in - although it might sound like it. Investment options in Canada may prove more profitable with our £ (pounds stirling) than any of the British investment options. As for lumber, thanks to the USA, that hasn't been doing so well in Canada recently either.. so no, we certainly won't be investing in that.

I need some investing advice....? I am going to be going to Kuwait with the national guard again for about a year. Last time I spent all my money, but this time I want to do it right. Does anyone have any advice on how to invest my money? I will have no bills and about 5000 a month tax free to invest. I will not be spending anything either, just what I have saved from last time. Ive heard stocks and cd's were good but Ive heard there are much better ways to yield higher returns. Also, I would like to invest WHILE Im there also so as not to lose out on potential gains as opposed to saving the whole thing and starting when I get back. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. If I dont understand I will research any avenues talked about. Thanks again, Jeremy
Anyone Have Advice on Getting Started in Real Estate Investing? I'm looking to purchase an investment property and I'm looking for some advice to get started. I'm not looking to buy and flip. I plan to purchase, rent, and manage the property. Positive cash flow is not hugely important, but I do need it to cover the mortgage of the property. I have very limited funds for a downpayment. How have others gotten started? What bumps did you encounter along the way? What were your long term goals and plans with your properties? Did you start small, or go big from the start? Thanks in advance!
