I have several oversea traders who are GOOD and I want to start a business where by people invest through me, and i let the traders do the trading, and then i pay back the investors. I guess a sorta investmetn company.

I want to form an LLC, but i was wondering the legalities of it, and if i can use my bank account to hold the funds during transfer (sort of like my own sort of escrow agent i guess).

Is there a way i can do this in the US or outside the US? Thanks,

I have a 401K through my employer. It is 100% vested.I'm 21, and a recent college graduate, so I'm told I have a lot of room to make mistakes, but I would like to avoid as many money mistakes as possible. I only have approximately $300 contributed to my 401k so far, because I don't understand how to diversify my portfolio. I have a number of options to choose from, but I don't know how to tell if they are "good" or not. They are: JP Morgan Stable Value, PIMCO Total Return, Vanguard Balanced Index, H&W Large Cap Value, Marsico Growth, BGI S&P 500 Equity Index, Artisan Samll Cap Value, MS Small Company Growth B and MFS International Equity. I need to invest in percentages equalling 100%, but I'm not quite sure how to choose to my financial advantage. How can I properly diversify my portfolio? Answers are greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

For that matter, say like in a fight, when a bookie is walking around taking bets and fifty people are yelling at him, how does he remember who bet what on what, etc. I've seen these scenarios a hundred times in movies but never understood how they work. Thanks

Say I buy stock online through TD Ameritrade, Sharebuilder, or what have you, not their IRA accounts, just their standard ones for stocks. Let's say I invest $100 in Apple stock, and in 6 months, it grows to $110 (just to keep things simple). At that 6 months, can I withdraw all the $110 from my account (of course, there might be fees and commissions too, but I'm just asking if I can withdraw all, or just the $10 that I made).

how can you have above average return ,,it is very difficult because all available information about a company is quickly reflected in the stock price. To make an above average return, you must have information about a company or sector that other investors don't have or have a superior ability to interpret the available information. If other investors already have this information, the price of the company's stock will already reflect it.

Hello: I have a bit of money to invest (84K). My dad passed away awhile ago and now I have to help my mom with payments because his income is gone. I was hoping to take some money, invest it in something that has a monthly interest return of 1% or so that I could draw each month to help defray her mortgage payment. I have no idea where to start, or if there is something out there like it. I was going to just start talking to a financial consultant in my credit union, but wanted to be sure that would be the best way to start? I'd like input on that or if anyone knows of types of investment I could consider, I could bring that knowledge with me in whoever I should talk to. Thank you!
