I don't understand your term "investment" what are you investing in? \n\nYou should call the Better Business Bureau and tell them the name of the company, see what you can find out about them. Some are scams. Be careful.

There isn't one.  Any investment promising that kind of return is either lying or so risky that you are much more likely to turn your $1000 into $1.50.  You don't get something for nothing.

Inventory Investment: There are three types of inventory investment: materials and supplies, work in progress, and finished goods.\n\nInventory Investment\nInventory investment relates to the composition of GDP. What is produced in a certain country is naturally also sold, but some of the goods produced in a given year may not be sold the same year, but in later years. Coherently, some of the goods sold in a given year might have been produced in an earlier year. The difference between goods produced (production) and goods sold (sales) in a given year is called inventory investment.\n\nIf firms produce more than they sell and inventories are accumulated, inventory investment is positive.\n\nIf firms sell more than they produce and inventories fall, inventory investment is negative.\n\n\nThree Important Relations\nThese three relations between production, sales and inventory investment can be helpful:\n\nInventory investment = production - sales\n\nProduction = sales + inventory investment\n\nSales = production - inventory investment

Why not invest into a property fund with a large investment company? It means that you will be spreading your risk by pooling your money with lots of other people and investing into a wide range of properties not just one. It will help avoid problems when you want to (or some one else wants to) release capital - as you can just cash in all or some of your investment. Costs are very low when compared to buying selling and maintaining a property of your own. I know Norwich Union have a property fund. Hope this helps.

In order for it to be an investment-- there must be risk and reward. CD and money markets are NOT investments since the Principal amount is guaranteed by the bank or SIPC. The ONLY investment that should be considered "safe" are U.S. Government securities. The U.S. Government has NEVER DEFAULTED on any ISSUE. Now the rate of return is not that great but the returns are exempt from the IRS.  The returns can be taxed by the state.\nI am a Former Regestered Principal with the NASD & NYSE Firm

There is no magic investment out there which is going to provide you with lots of income with little work. Most reputable financial advisors will tell you there are only 3 basic passive investments that most rational people use:\n\n1. Bank accounts and Money Market accounts.\n(These usually barely keep up with inflation.)\n2. Bonds and Bond Funds\n(These currently don't yield much better.)\n3. Diversified Stocks\n(These Average 10% a year but have large swings in price)\n\nMost other investments you hear about are usually of questionable worth.  You can make money in Real Estate as a landlord if you are willing to put a lot of work into it.  Most good financial advisors will not recommend passive real estate investments.  (An exception is REIT's, but they are basically a type of stock)

It is a class of stock that has a "preference" of some kind when it comes to dividing profits.   There are many ways it can be expressed. \n\nIt generally means that they get their dividend FIRST, whether Common gets any or not.  If there's no money for dividends that year, the question is whether it is "cumulative", meaning that if they don't pay this year, they have to make it up next year before paying Common, or "non cumulative" meaning it starts at zero each year, and also whether it is "participating", which means that if there is a LOT of dividend money, is the preferred dividend an upper limit or do they get more in flush years.

Treasury bonds or any other guaranteed government bonds.  \n\nYou are going to find that "safe" investments do not earn a great deal of return.  But remember rule #1..never invest money you can't afford to lose.

You must avoid speculative (risky) investments like stocks.  You must stick to either bonds (which carry little or no risk) or mutual funds (which negate the effect of risk because they are invested in numerous types of stocks from many different corporations).  I would strongly advise a no-load mutual fund.  Also, before you do any of this, find out whether your employer matches any portion of your 401k.  If so, you must contribute to your 401k (at least to the point of the match, if possible). This allows you to invest without the effect of taxes until you withdraw (hopefully when you retire).
