If I am 30 years old and making about $10-12,000 per month, what is the best way to invest ( aggresively )?

Question

That would mean investing in stock, not day trading!

I hate saying what I do because people always tell me I'm full of it.

I am pursuing the investment property idea right now.

To you down below: How do I tell you
? Do I have to put it on here?

Answer 1

I currently have about 60% of my portfolio invested rather aggressively. I am in some small cap, micro cap, international and mid cap funds. Occasionally I also pick up a speculative stock and a penny stock or two. The rest of my portfolio is in stable consistent growth funds of large and mid cap funds as well as some value funds. I also have some money in high dividend paying nat gas trusts in canada; these will benefit from the weakening us dollar and the large dividend payout.
If you're really looking for large returns, trade options, but do not trade naked options. I am currently trading options in a separate account and was up 200%, until just recently, when things took a turn for the worse. Thses positions do require more diligent monitoring, but if you were to look at LEAPS (they go out many months to 3 years in time) you could spend less time montoring them.

Congratulations!

For that kind of money, to invest aggressively, you might want to check out these links.

Zacks has a complex mathematical model that they apply to several thousand stocks to see which bubble up. They have several categories, like aggressive growth, momentum, etc. While the home page (zacks.com) doles out free samples, if you have substantial funds available to invest and want to pay for their Zacks Elite service, you get full access to the good stuff.

Perhaps a little cheaper, often a little slower, would be some of the services offered through Forbes. Search for things like Special Situation Survey, or Growth Investor, or Prudent Speculator. I did a trial on Prudent a while back and found he was tracking on some of the same stocks as I was holding, so I quit on the end of the trial before I had to pay money for what I was already largely doing at that time. That wasn't exactly aggressive, but something to consider--aggressive means risky, some fly and some fold. I don't like things that fold (but then I hold money in Revlon, a good company that will either run out of cash soon or get bought out, so how is that for hypocracy?).

Answer 3

Research high growth stocks. If you don't know anything about investing, start with index funds, looking at more aggresive funds, like small cap and international. IF you can afford property, that's a good way to go, especially if you're currently renting.

Answer 4

Good for you sir ! You're my idol! Aggresively would be buying land & profit from rental either domestically or internationally , But I won't suggest speculative stocks or penny stocks but that thing is very very aggresive !

Answer 5

I would think you would like to invest in your own business, only because you said aggresively. It cant get more aggressive than investing your own business..

Answer 6

give some to me!!! the better question is, tell me what you do?!!
anyway... go on vanguard.com--they will provide for a listing of the different stocks available, their average growth monthly/annually, and whether or not it is moderate, conservative or aggressive and you can diversify your stocks for maximum benefit.
also, go on usaa.com---they have great retirement programs, like IRAs and such....
and you can......
invest in REIT stocks which is real estate stocks, without home ownership

Answer 7

Derivatives and Foreign Currency trading. It allows you to leverage, E.g. you only need to spend $5,000 to trade $50,000 worth of foreign currency.
