I need ideas. What would be a good investment for $25,000 or so?
Greetings, Kickycan and others:
Feel free to ask me about System P500, is my suggestion.
My ADVICE is: Whatever you do, take your time (weeks or even months before committing that amount), don't leap! "Act in haste, repent in leisure" - you know?

The Caprice Travel Fund
Caprice,
Outstanding idea, I could contribute to that! My favorite train is"The Canadian" (VIA RAIL train nos. 1 and 2, Toronto-Winnipeg-Jasper-Vancouver).

Australia is a land of opportunity!!! Rabbit skins and meat! Plenty to go round my friend!!
Caprice, what kind of return on my investment to I get with that? It doesn't necessarily have to be monetary . . .
Long term, short term? You could put it in relatively conservative stocks or mutual funds..or mix it up with some risky ones. You could use it towards buying a house/condo.
Or you can buy my "Slappy Doo Hoo Guide to Making Money Package." It retails for $30,000, but because I like you, you can acquire all this knowledge to getting rich for ONLY $24,995!!!
Go to college, if you haven't already. A good education is by far the best investment there is.

How about a BIG appreciative smile from me? That alone has to be worth several G's!

And first peek at all my photos too! In fact....I'd even toss in a poster size print of your fave photo! You pick!!!
Stop me now before I give away the farm.

kickycan: Bein' the self admitted horn dog that ya are, you could get a lot of sex for your 25 G's. I see Craven is selling sex for $5, so think of how far your money would go there!!!!!!!!
*fleeeeees!!!!!!!!!*

Unfortunately, I don't swing that way. On the other hand, a deal like that doesn't come around every day . . . hmmm . . . naaaah, I still can't do it!
I would suggest contacting BiPolarBear. He still has that Pizza-in-a-Balloon thing going. I think $25,000 is about what he's asking for a franchise.
Good luck.
kick:
As you can see this is a loaded question, leaving you open not only to sarcasm but also the idle con.
The short answer to your question is: it depends.
Another short answer is: ask someone whom you really trust, and ask them face to face.
Good luck.
I'd open the "Slappy Doo Hoo's Center For Kids Who Can't Read Too Good....And Want To Do Other Stuff Good Too."

Am I that stupid, or does this make no sense?
Hmm, I thought it was more Zoolander than I-95...
kickycan, I can hook you up with this Nigerian executive who needs to temporarily move a ton of money into your bank account. You would get a handsome cut for your trouble. It's foolproof!
