    The key word there being "[if] you have money you don't need." Right now is a perfect time to invest in the market. IF you're smart about it. Because of the economic crisis right now if you invest properly, you can make enormous gains in short term & long term. Look for companies that have suffered from the economic crisis, but that will not go bankrupt, if you invest in their stocks while they're low, you can make significant gains, once the market stabilizes. Moreover, investing in alternative energy companies is probably one of the SMARTEST ideas someone with disposable income could do right now. Research wind-power, and geo-thermal companies.

    I'm a currently an economics major, and I also invest in the stock market.

    sorry for this but ... go back to your books and read the part where it says "when making enormous gains...watch out for enormous losses"

    second - if you invest properly???? how do you do that? do you have a time machine? and to add to that statement in contrast to investing improperly???

    thirdly - more over, if you invest in a stocks while they are low... why are they low? do you sit on the board that will make them high??? nobody knows the next steps in any market... trend yes... what are the trends now? upward growth or great losses - so, ask you economics teacher how his portfoilio is doing - and when he says great!! ask him the stocks he has invested in ... watch him studder and stammer - nothing is a sure bet right now... but you can bank on the safe bet of loss right now (please dont say if you buy know and wait for 20 years it will be worth something, i have lost too much money at this point to hear that again)

    billions have been lost with "smartest ideas", as for green companies they have a great out look IF THE PEOPLE WHO HAD MONEY TO INVEST IN THEM WERNT SO CRUSHED IN THE OTHER AREAS OF THEIR STOCK PROTFOILIOS... THEIR IS LIMITED POTENTIAL HERE DUE TO THE FACT WE DONT KNOW THE DIRECTIONS OF OUR GOV. AND LAWS THAT MAYBE MADE TO MAKE GOV.MENTAL MONIES FROM THE SAME INDUSTRIES...

    back to what i said, find some one who is a pro (not me on this matter) and remember, 80% of the people who get their degree dont use it... good luck !!!!

    Honestly man, wtf is your problem. That is the most fvcking attitude I've ever seen over an investment question. Are you trying to be a motivational speaker or something? And I don't have a ****ing clue what you're talking about regarding "trends." We do know EXACTLY where the government is going in terms of alternative energy. Look it up moron, Obama has already outlined 3 major alternative-energy sources that they US is going to invest in, AS A NATION. If you aren't retarded, you can figure out which companies are probably going to be involved in that growth of alternative energy and invest in them

    But hell what do I know. I'm just a dumb student hey?!

    it is true that you can follow trends, thats why knowing math can help spot them. and i don't mean calc lol. also, you wouldn't really want to invest in something as big as alt energy unless you just want a steady increase, like maybe 3% yearly (which you can get from safer investing, like a CD) all those big name companies that are pioneering are usually bought out very fast so you can't get the dramatic rise in price like you can with other stocks. like take microsoft for example, if you look at yahoo's stock pages and the graph of prices on MS, it will fluctuate by about $3-4, but always comes back up. so if you were to invest at the low point and sell at the highest, you would make money, but only a steady stream

    but if you do find something huge, like the next google, you will be a very rich man. it peaked at almost 10x the price it opened at before the decline of the market

    very much agreed to the last statement...

    - problem = your giving advise based on not enough info... plus your just a student

    - i am a motivational speaker, and get paid good money for doing so... i have made tons of money over my life from having "that" attitude here is more of it (with a smile of coarse) ---) (--- you ideas = empty... he he he i think i am so funny

    - no clue on trends then dont answer the guy question - the STOCK - market is all trends

    - obama also said we were pulling out of the middle east ... oops ... he really didnt mean that, and with fuel being sooooo low (cost), their is less presure to make that happen, yet, if EVERY one is sooo sure about what is going to happen why hasnt every one put their money in that company????? guess that is that for you answer

    - an "out-line" does not equal action, we as a country have no idea what will happen with green power or any other fuel resources, (a little advise here, dont believe people in gov trying to get elected)

    - as for retarded =ing ---) "relatively slow in mental or emotional or physical development" i think i am rather witty


    so sorry i got your feather is such a ruffle but "what do you know your just a student" ---) sorry that wasnt nice, here i really mean this

    dude lighten up - too much coffee tonight?

    This is the most ridiculous part of your argument. Comparing your prior dumb investments, to investing CURRENTLY.

    "if you invest in a stocks while they are low... why are they low? do you sit on the board that will make them high" - this is absolutely retarded. Straight up, I hope to GOD you aren't some wanna-be "investment broker" or something. Your advice is so ridiculously absurd & pessimist. You obviously have no clue how to invest in a highly volatile market.. maybe you should dust off some econ books there buddy.
