Ok, heres the deal. My fiance just got an insurance settlement and is investing $10 grand. Neither of us have ever had the chance to invest before and are unsure of how to go about it. Her Dad introduced her to a stock broker who is wanting to invest it in mutual stocks, I had to work during there appointment but I looked over the paperwork and it wasn't very detailed as to where he would put the money. It had a questionaire that asked very general questions basically trying to find out whether you wanted to take big chances and lose or gain large sums or take low risk chances and lose or gain smaller amounts. She is hoping to invest it and have a really nice return after say 10 years when we are near our mid thirties. I was hoping to get a little advice and thought this board would be an excellent place to start. Like I said she wants to invest it in something that is fairly "safe" since this is a lot of money to us, but would also like to make a nice profit later on. I would greatly appreciate any advice anyone may have or if anyone could point us in other places on the web to research.
