t3h asked: I’m looking for something in detail, ways to invest with a limited amount of risk. I prefer to invest in stocks, bonds, mutual funds, CDs, real estate, and possibly other areas, and I’m wondering is there something close to a formula (percentage of each type) that will work best for someone who only wants to put in about 20 hours per week on the work associated with the investments.

mookie asked: “Your investment remains in an FDIC-insured escrow account under the control of a 3rd party trustee. Principle is never at risk. Ever. Returns routinely range between 55% and 75% ROI.”

how can I find out if it is legit or not?
I remember someone on yahoo answers was advertising http://www.swisscash.biz that claims it can give you 200%-300% return on your investment which is obviously a fraud.

nycjoe29 asked: Many people have lost their houses and savings. Shouldn’t professional lenders explain interest rate risks to less sophosticated customers? In Wall Street, financial professionals can be sewed for buying investments that are too risky for certain investors. Why is this not the case for lenders?

celebrate_me_home_2000 asked: Obama called for a Homeowner and Financial Support Act that would provide funds to prevent catastrophic failures in the financial industry and help keep people in their homes.
First of all, Investment banks were all the discussion on the German television. You invest and take the risk.
People, I guess, signed variable rates to interest only loans and were expecting the value of the house to increase some 10-20% in the year are now going to get bailed out.

teresanguyen7 asked: I was invited as a consultant’s guest 2 nights ago. I’ve heard of Mary kay before but never really considered getting into it. It was that night that I learned about the incentives & the great opportunities. Part of me is the optimist that can see myself planning makeup parties & gathering potential clients, but the realist in me is so afraid of failure & possibly falling more financially than where I am now. Please help me decide whether to take a risk or to stay still.

Tom asked: I have about $10,000 that I want to invest short term (no more than 1 year), I want it to be fairly liquid without much risk.
Is there anything out there that has a better return than a money market?
Warning for you guys that offer “investment opportunities” , if you reply with an “opportunity”, you will be reported.

bautista2012 asked: I have a property land as an investment and paying half of the payment, I bought it together with a relative. He is not interested in selling the land at this time. If I go into foreclosure will the bank acquire the land in repayment of the remaining balance of the house?
