Probably BTC honestly, I can see where BTC will rise once again.

Spend about $5000 on BTC and leave the rest of the money in your bank. Don't have dead weight, attempt to make it increase.

 

[beezmans]

id put 5k-10k into stocks/bonds and the rest into bank

 

[JoshR]

Donate to charity!






















Kidding, spend it on alcohol, drugs and whatever fucks u up

 

[cryptminer]

Buy into BTC and lock it away for 1-2 years.

You'll see a 10% - 1000% Gain within this time period, guaranteed.

How do I know? Go and look around, every company is adapting bitcoin, more and more people are buying in every day. Banks are FEARING how big it is getting!

it is only uphill for bitcoin

I'd be skeptical about any btc advice made by a guy named cryptminer. There is clear bias involved in what he's saying

Okay guys and Gals sorry i havent replyed for awhile but i finaly had time to respond to everyone so just bare with me here or just look for the reply to your post. Thanks​

Buy a subscription to the Wall Street Journal and Investor's Business Daily. Keep up to date on companies and what they're up to. ESSENTIAL to be up to date if you'll be doing work in the stock market. I'm in Mexico for 4 days and when I get back I will be completely shocked by what I've missed. It all moves very fast but it's so damn fun

See thats one thing about me if i do invest im not sure i have time to watch the market every single day. So i guess i would be looking into more long term investments. I have a few stocks i bought a few years ago 10 shares of google, 20 shares of marboral, and 20 of entergy company. Thanks for the words tho.

Something I posted elsewhere:

Some current events:

1) Federal Interest Rate hike: The gov. are pinned to increase the IR by the end of september or risk losing almost all credibility (they keep pushing it back and tbh with good reason but I digress...) Which companies benefit from this? Banks and Insurance do for sure

2) Iranian Nuclear deal: When Iran sanctions are lifted - they will have obtain 150B $$$$ in a previous frozen account. They have planned to spend most on domestic infrastructure improvement/creation. Which companies benefit from this? How does this affect the global economy? Coke, Pepsi. Tobacco companies. Big oil. These companies were previously shut out due to sanctions and hard trade restrictions.

3) Gr-exit: Greece needs to sell assets/land to private sector to raise money to pay off debt. Who benefits from this?

Very interseting stuff here i can see you are one that keeps up with world events and for sure can see how that comes in to help you with investments. Will do some digging into this.

Stay away from bitcoin pal... Most people have mentioned investments and i totally agree, however you need to really look into that and have patience before making any investment..

I suggest you talk to your local banks and ask them about investments through them, usually banks have capital guranteed investments that can bring you 3 ---> to 15% / year... not much but also your 25k$ for investment is not much.

If your a gambler, there are also investments similar to gambling where you can invest with a risk of losing your money, but a higher annual percentage.

As to cut this short, u seem like a x-army who has plenty of time, i can also guess you have a passion in that field, why not open a small shop near your house, contact china manufactures and import knives, hunting gear and army clothes etc.... I think I see you running such a shop with great passion and love...

Btw, i spent years of my life just advising people what to do with their money, I controlled hundreds of thousand of dollars of clients into good investments, however when i comes to myself, I always throw my money gambling and fuck up...

so again whatever u do, my final advice would be stay away from gambling please, either spend them in fun/entertainment for that life you live only once, or for an investment for your children or family..

good luck pal

One of the better post iv read. To start off completly agree with you about bitcoins i could never get my self to invest into that its way to risky. Also Thanks for your words about my time in service means alot. Opening a bussiessnes would be a great idea. Im currently bank with a Local FCU bank so that might do me some good. Have a credit score of 670 i believe it was last time i checked it atleast. I like to gamle but i dont do it much and when i do its with little amount of money. Im not really the family type either. Thanks again for your words i took alot from it.

Purchase land, build a house with your bare hands, sell it.

Not a terible idea but i dont really stay one place long enough to do something like that. Thanks tho

Health is important. Hire me as your personal online trainer coach for $14.99/month
But beyond that... I assume your goal is to make more money with your $25,000. Tell me exactly what it is you like doing and I can point you in the direction to make money doing it.

How about .25/month lol
Personaly im into engineering and out door stuff. From building with my hands to hunting and fishing.

First of all, very few people possess the skill set ('s!) to build their own home single handedly. Second of all you can't afford to build much more than a SHACK on 1/2 acre for $25k (you'd be better off buying a mobile home..). Material, permits, inspections would eat that small chunk of change up in a hurry.

If you don't know about something than I'd suggest not talking about it. Real estate and construction does not seem to be your area of expertise.

Haha very much agree just for two acres of land where im from would take up the 25k so no way in hell i could do that unless i live in a tent. thanks nodnarbusn

Everyone here is acting like $25,000 is a lot of money... Drake goes to a strip club couple times a month and spends $50,000 in one night Lol...

1. Do what ever you want with the money if it was me first buy a house get approved for a mortgage save maybe another 20,000 dollars and you won't have a problem there.

2. If you already own a house in a relatively good neighborhood buy a better car something reliable or you can put $25,000 down payment and get a nice C-Class Mercedes or BMW...

3. If you already own a house and a good car renovate your home build a deck hire a landscaper finish your basement if it hasn't been done change your house to hardwood if its carpet buy new appliances or couches make your home better after having a long day of work nothing is more satisfying then coming home and seeing all that you accomplished because of your job.

4. If you got all those things then your pretty much already living a better life then 80% of the world so go shopping buy some clothes go on vacation spend the money on entertainment for yourself.

As i said on one of my post on here i totaly agree im not planning on getting rich off 25 grand its not alot of money. Just dont want to blow it and want to put it to some kinda good use you know..
I own my car and i share a house with my best mate so im good on all of that. Might fix it up alittle more tho its something to think about for sure. Thanks brian.

Invest on real estate,not to say houses or villa.Just buy some shops which someone can rent them and you can get monthly payment from them.
Also I'd suggest for bitcoins.I think you can buy around 5 coins and keep it on PC(use a paper wallet) and keep it well.Bitcoin will raise in years and will become 1% of the world economy. Good Luck.

Honestly as iv said i few times i just dont know anything about bitcoins and from what i hear they are super risky. 25k want buy any shops tho it would be more or less a down payment. Thanks tho

Houses

Usless post.

Probably BTC honestly, I can see where BTC will rise once again.

What is up with everyone and bitcoins lol. I will research them since your like the 8th person to say that but im kinda ify about them from some things iv heard.

Make a post to reddit.com/r/personalfinance I've seen them help out a lot of people.

Will look that up mate

Another pointless post.

id put 5k-10k into stocks/bonds and the rest into bank

Thats all well and good but i guess im looking for my guidenes on what to invest in.

I'd be skeptical about any btc advice made by a guy named cryptminer. There is clear bias involved in what he's saying

110% Agree with you video iv heard bitcoins from few people tho but as iv said i know nothing about them and from what i have heard they are risky

 

Personally I would buy royalties or go stock market, if you don't need to spend it, then get it to generate even more income for you.

Invest it in index funds and you'll get a ~10% yearly return.

I recommend reading the following book: http://ca.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd-0470830069.html

It will teach you everything you need to know about investing and being smart with money. If you have anymore question or would like me to give more detail let me know.

9 rules is pretty short, I'd recommend reading the intelligent investor by Benjamin Graham and the alchemy of finance by George Soros. If you want to invest your own money knowledge is the key and timing the market comes with knowledge. Keep up to date with the news and invest in something you believe in not through your gut alone but by researching as well. If you want to have passive investments then do what many have recommended and invest in a mutual fund or index fund which diversifies the risks for you and offers decent returns.

 

[Shadexpwn]

Make your own decent levels ETF.

Make sure you don't buy popularized stock options as you will lose everything.

Purchase a home in gatineau quebec or greater toronto area (canada). Home values are a pretty safe investment there, and first time home owners only require a 5% down payment. Rent it out and let it pay for itself. You cannot lose money. Over a 10 year period your house value will increase. In 6 decades there hasnt been a home thats lost value from when you purchased it to 10 years down the road. Super safe investment.

Take a loan and buy a home in the centre of Amsterdam, and rent it out. Price of the home will only go up, and you'll get a steady income off the rent.

Don't gamble, learn about the stocks. Relax & Max
