Investing!!!!!
It's a great idea to invest! By investing your money you are gaining more money by interest. Investments help you more in the future. If your young and have a good paying job you should invest more. If you are older soon to be retiring it would be a good idea not to invest in high risk things like stocks. You should put the money in an savings or checking account. A savings account has a very very low risk of losing money. The return is pretty low though. The Liquidity is high because you can get your money back with no problem. By investing in stocks you have a medium high risk of losing money. The return is 11%!! That's pretty good. The main problem with stocks is it's harder to get money when you want it. A very high risk investment is investing in collectibles. The return is
med high because if you find the right buyer you will most likely get more money for it than you bought it for. The liquidity is low because it takes time to find the right person and get money.
