How should I invest $45,000.00(VERY SRS)

[OPISAPHAG]

I'm currently laid off and I have $45,000 to invest in something that will keep me from having to go back to work. I have the skills to get a Cisco Networking Certification that could get me a decent job, but I can't stand the thought of working just to make someone else rich. I have sold electronics on ebay in the past and could easily make $400-$800 a week in profit. Thinking about doing it again. Any other ideas? Stock market? Small Franchise? Serious Brahs.

[ne12o]

LOL,
Investing IS Work, if you don't think of it as such you will lose it all.

true story bro.

[Three6Mafia]

Depends on how much knowledge you have of the industry. I would invest in real estate first if you don't already have any real estate

[Stopdroproll]

Buy a house off loans.

Dunno what the market is like over there but you could try flipping houses

I have thought very seriously about buying the triplex I live in. Owner is interested in selling it to me for $130,000 which seems way to cheap compared to other properties I have looked at in the area. I was gonna pull the trigger, but then I got laid off. I don't think I'm gonna get any help from the bank being laid off. BTW, I dont mind working as long as it is for myself.

I used to be an excellent poker player. Haven't played in a while, but last time I played I took down two 35 man tourneys in a row. I don't however think poker is a very wise investment.

[KindrgartenMisc]

Use it to live on until you find another job (srs)


In b4 OP blows it all on a stupid investment and has no job AND no money

There's no real way to make a sure killing in the stock market unless you really know what you're doing. Even then there is still a great amount of risk.

If you have your heart set on the stock market, I would start with something like mutual funds. They are relatively low risk, but also generally have a low return.

In my short experience in life, selling things has been the easiest way to make good money with little effort. Be it an ebay business, selling on craigslist, or whatever, you can make some serious money if you find a way to sell something high in demand you can get for cheap.
