So where is it profitable to invest your money so that they work? In this article, we will look at 5 popular ways to invest funds that have stood the test of time.
Hello, friends! With you Alexander Berezhnov, entrepreneur and one of the founders of the site "KhiterBober.ru"
In writing this article, I relied on my experience, the experience of my friends, and also studied a huge amount of materials and talked with large millionaire investors in order to give the most competent and detailed answer.
With this post, I begin a series of articles on the topic “Where to invest money”.
Here we will consider both popular ways of investing money and “exotic” ones. I will highlight the advantages and disadvantages of each of them, and at the very end I will summarize our review.
At the end of the article, I will tell you where you should NOT invest money so as not to burn out. So let's go!
Here we will look at the principles that should be followed in order to get a percentage of your investments above the bank rate with almost the same reliability.
Why do I say that almost the same? Remember the golden rule of investing?
Profit is always proportional to the risks that the investor takes!
It may seem banal for some, but the first thing you should start investing with is to acquire the necessary knowledge. This means that it is best to invest the first money not in stocks, not in gold, not in a bank, but to invest in yourself - they will pay off many times over. So it is recommended to do two richest man in the world - Bill Gates and Warren Buffett.
After you have the necessary knowledge and understanding of various financial instruments, their principles of operation, expected profits and risks, you can move on to practice.
Principle 1. Create a financial cushion
This means that without a certain financial base, it is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN to invest. The only exception is a bank deposit, as it is rather not an investment, but a savings instrument.
What is a financial cushion and how to create it?
financial cushion- this is a six-month supply of money that you and your family can live on while maintaining the usual standard of living, having no other sources of income.
You can create such a pillow by regularly postponing financial receipts (salary) or by selling existing property.
For example, if your family is used to living on 50,000 rubles a month, then you must have at least 300,000 rubles to start investing.
The exception when you can start investing money at interest without having a financial cushion is if you have passive income.
Passive income- the flow of money coming to you, which does not depend on your daily efforts, such as renting out real estate, stock dividends or profits from an existing business.
Principle 2. Diversify investments
For your money to work correctly, think about where to invest it in order to comply with the principle of diversification, that is, the division of funds into different investment instruments.
If you have become interested in the topic of investing, then surely this concept is familiar to you. In other words, this means " don't put all your eggs in one basket". If you have a basket of eggs and it falls, then all the eggs in it will break and you will be left with nothing.
This will happen with your savings (savings), if you invest them all in one business (project) or investment instrument.
By the way, diversification involves not only investing in different financial instruments, but also in different sectors of the economy.
For example, if you invest in the stock market, then try to form your investment portfolio* so that your money works in companies of different sectors.
Investment portfolio- the totality of all assets of the investor. For example, if you have a bank deposit, stocks, real estate, a business - all these tools for making a profit in terms of investments will be called your investment portfolio.
To make your investment portfolio as resilient as possible to market changes, invest 20% of free funds in the banking sector, 20% in the oil and gas sector, 20% in the manufacturing sector, and 20% in the agricultural or food sector.
So, if one company (sphere) starts to suffer losses, then the rest will “pull” your funds up and will not let the portfolio sink.
Principle 3: Manage risks
Risks- this is the main "problem" that absolutely all investors face.
Remember, before you invest money somewhere, think about how much you can lose and only then - how much can you earn.
Unfortunately, beginners make the same mistake - their eyes light up, dollar signs appear instead of pupils, and now they are already rubbing their hands in anticipation of millions.
How are things in practice?
But in practice - everything is different! Having overestimated their strengths and experience, many people immediately try to engage in aggressive investment and lose money instead of investing in more conservative instruments. So it turns out in the end that the greed of the fraer ruined ...
Investments are the same science as any other professional business, which means that you need to evolve in this direction gradually, going from simple to complex.
Start with 100 or with 1000 dollars, and God forbid you invest large amounts at once, especially in what you do not understand!
The height of illiteracy here is to borrow money at interest and try to quickly "crank" them in some "super profitable" way.
In 99% out of 100, this ends with the loss of the entire amount and the credit burden that hangs over you like a sword of Damocles.
Do not rush, because if you become an investment specialist, then your future millions will not run away from you anywhere. On the contrary, if you rush and try to get rich instantly, then there is a great chance that you will never earn big money.
Principle 4. Attract co-investors
As you gain experience as an investor, you can invest together to form investment pools. So you can get more opportunities - where to invest money so that they work with maximum efficiency.
For example, you have found a project or tool that you think is attractive for investment, you have free funds, but they are not enough. Then find those who are ready to support your investment idea and invest money on a parity basis with you.
AT last years fairly common topic pamm accounts. In this case, investors transfer to trust management* own cash professional financial asset manager.
Trust asset management- a type of financial and business relationship where one person or company transfers its money (property) to another person - a trustee.
At the same time, the manager cannot dispose of these funds or property on the basis of ownership, but only has the right to use it to extract profit, a percentage of which he receives as a reward for successful management.
So several investors can create such pamm account pooled together and transfer this amount to trust management, while all risks of losses are assumed by investors in proportion to the invested funds.
With the manager of such an account (trader), investors can agree that he should stop working on the account when he receives losses in a certain percentage of the account value.
If we summarize this investment scheme, we see that investors are ready to donate, for example, 15% of their money to potentially receive 30% income.
Principle 5. Create passive income
Increasing your capital is very good, but no less important point what remains here is the creation of passive income from your investment activities.
Why is it so important?
If you understand the course of my thoughts, then you are guaranteed to take a fresh look at investing your funds.
illustrative example
You invested 100,000 rubles and received 130,000 rubles in a year, that is, you earned 30% on the invested funds.
However, next time you cannot be 100% sure that you will earn another 30% or more in a year. Considering that such profitability is much higher than the banking one, it means that the risks of this method are much greater.
You may even lose most or all of the amount if something goes wrong next time.
On the other hand, if for 100,000 rubles you could create passive income for yourself, for example, the same 2,500 rubles a month, which also amounts to 30,000 rubles a year, then in this case, you can easily borrow the same 100,000 rubles and invest them more conservatively, so your asset with a passive income of 2,500 rubles is a guarantee of the return of a new loan amount of 100,000 rubles.
In order to better understand how to create passive income and then create assets with it, I recommend playing the game " Cash flow » the famous investor, entrepreneur and business coach Robert Kiyosaki.
By the way, here is what Robert Kiyosaki says about the importance of passive income:
2. How much can I start investing
You can start investing with any amount. If you have chosen a bank deposit or shares as an investment instrument, then here you can start with literally 100 rubles.
If you have no money at all, then just start saving at least for 10% from any of your income. So you will form the habit of creating a financial reserve for yourself and as your income grows, your savings will increase proportionally. Money will work for you while you rest.
Everyone is talking about saving money. famous people teaching success and proper handling of personal finances: Bodo Schaeffer, Robert Kiyosaki, Warren Buffett.
The fact is that many people, with an increase in income, begin to spend even more and even take loans, since they do not have enough money all the time. It is called "reached the good life".
Always control your balance between income and expenses, live within your means!
Franchising is one of the most reliable and profitable ways to invest.

My friend Sergey opened a Sushi Master point in Maikop in the format of an island, having invested 1.5 million rubles, and six months later he already paid off his investment. So the scheme works not only in theory, but also in practice.
In section 4, I will describe in detail how to competently open a business under this franchise by investing a quite moderate amount in promising direction Catering.

3. Where to invest money to make it work - 5 profitable ways to invest
Now many people's eyes widen from various proposals - where to invest money. If you open the Internet and read articles on this topic, then someone offers to buy such and such a super-course, after which you will become a millionaire in a week.
But in most cases, all these "magic pills" are nothing more than good way steal your savings.
Now we will look at the classic ways that allow you to invest in understandable instruments with predictable returns and moderate risks.
Method 1.
This is the most popular way to save money, but its income is barely comparable to the inflation rate in the country. So if you invest money in a bank and keep it there from year to year, then at best you simply won’t lose it, more or less tangible earnings are out of the question here.
Now Russia has adopted a law that guarantees payments on deposits in 1 400 000 rubles in case the bank fails. This applies to all banks that have an official license to carry out banking activities.
Previously, the sum insured was 700 000 rubles. That is, if you invested your money in a bank and for some reason it ceased to exist, then the state will compensate you for your money if the deposit amount does not exceed the insurance one.
Now in our country there are hundreds of banks with interest rates from 5% before 12% .
Historically, the most popular bank among our citizens is Sberbank, although here the percentage of deposits is one of the lowest, but a large branch network and high reliability of the bank itself allow it to remain a leader in terms of deposits.
Pros and cons of investing in a bank account
Pros:
- high reliability (low risks);
- high liquidity (the ability to return money at any time);
- the minimum threshold for investment (you can start with 1000 rubles);
- simplicity and clarity of the investment instrument.
Minuses:
- low interest on deposits;
- loss of interest on early withdrawals.
Method 2. Stock market and mutual funds
Part of the financial market where people or companies can purchase stocks, bonds, futures and other securities.
If you have free funds and want to get more income than in a bank, but you take on relatively greater risks, then the stock market will be a good tool for you.
To start investing in securities, you just need to contact a bank or a specialized brokerage company which deals with operations on stock market.
Personally, I recommend two well-known brokerage companies for this: Aton Investment Company and Otkritie Brokerage House. You can safely invest your money in these companies so that they work and not be afraid to lose them.
Many cities have their offices.
By the way, speaking of the stock market, it is worth noting that there are different types investors by duration of investment. There are short-term investors, they are also called speculators. These are people who buy and sell securities within a short period of time: from a few minutes to several weeks.
There are medium-term investors, they buy shares for several weeks or months. There are also long-term investors, they usually act on the “bought and forget” principle - they invest their money in securities for several years, assessing the potential of the company and the industry in which it operates.
The last type of investor is investment guru Warren Buffett. Once he was asked when to sell the purchased shares, and then Buffett replied that never! This is his concept of long-term investment.
You can manage your investments yourself or entrust this business to a professional manager (trader).
There are also special funds where you can invest money - mutual funds.
mutual fund- share investment fund. it financial institution, which independently forms its investment portfolio from various financial instruments (stocks, bonds, bank deposits) and sells shares in this portfolio - shares.
Based on the results of a certain period of management, interest is accrued to you according to the size of your share.
But if you definitely receive more at the end of the year than you invested in the bank, then here your profitability may be negative, that is, the fund may work at a loss.
Pros and cons of investing in the stock market and mutual funds
Pros:
- a small initial amount for investment (from 1000 rubles or even less);
- interest at the end of the reporting period is usually higher than in a bank;
- a large selection of investment instruments (stocks, bonds, futures, options);
- opportunity to receive dividends;
- the opportunity to independently compile an investment portfolio, choosing a flexible ratio of risks and expected returns.
Minuses:
- relatively greater complexity of the investment process compared to a bank deposit;
- relatively large risks (you can get a loss);
- in certain cases, special knowledge is required (with independent investment portfolio management).
Method 3. Forex (currency market)
Global world currency exchange market. Here you can exchange (convert) almost all known currencies, that is, buy some monetary units for others, such as dollars for euros.
Speculator traders make money on Forex, most of them make intraday trading operations.
After all, we want to know all the ways where to invest money so that they work and Forex will help us with this. After all, here you can quickly increase capital several times in a couple of months. In a popular article on our website, I have already talked about my experience of trading on the stock exchange and about how.
Indeed, in Forex you can earn a lot. However, this comes with huge risks and you can lose your investment capital in minutes.
Now a large number of companies offer Forex trading services. Such companies are called Forex brokers.
Be careful when choosing a forex broker. Since there are many companies now that do not bring your trades to real currency market and you just play on your computer in the trading program like in a casino (losing your money, of course).
Before you start doing this way of investing, read customer reviews, go to the company's office, make sure it is trustworthy and serious.
Pros and cons of investing in Forex
Pros:
- a small entry threshold (usually from $100);
- the ability to quickly and earn a lot;
- a large selection of investment instruments (currency pairs for trading).
Minuses:
- special technical skills and knowledge are required for investment;
- very high risks.
Method 4. Bitcoin (Cryptocurrencies)
Here you can make very good money, but also lose if you do not follow the market. The most famous cryptocurrency is Bitcoin. Its main advantages: decentralization, anonymity, security, limitedness. This means that Bitcoin is not controlled by any state, and due to the limited issue and the growing demand for cryptocurrency, its price will only grow in the future. You can buy Bitcoin at a favorable rate in - this service is not only an exchanger, but also a crypto-wallet where you can safely store cryptocurrency.
Method 5. Real estate
One of the classic investment tools, when a person with money wonders where to invest his money.
You can buy both residential and commercial invisibility. Naturally, commercial real estate provides more income than residential, however, and requires more knowledge for its competent purchase.
Property other than buildings also includes land, water bodies, ships, aircraft and spacecraft in accordance with the Civil Code of the Russian Federation.
Real estate has a number of great advantages, but this way of investing is also not without its drawbacks.
Pros and cons of investing in real estate
Pros:
- the opportunity to rent out real estate and receive passive income;
- the opportunity to sell real estate and earn on the difference between the purchase and sale prices;
- a reliable way to save money (real estate in most cases protects money from inflation - depreciation);
- due to the fact that real estate is a tangible (tangible) asset, it can be used for your own commercial or non-commercial needs, for example, you can open a business in the premises, you can live in residential real estate.
Minuses:
- high entry threshold (usually from several hundred thousand);
- low liquidity (cannot be quickly sold without a significant loss of market value);
- subject to mechanical damage - damage by tenants, natural disasters, force majeure - gas explosion, fire, and so on (insure your property to avoid losing money if it is damaged or lost).
Method 6. Own business
If you have an entrepreneurial spirit and some commercial experience, then one of best solutions for you to invest in your own business.
Simple example:
Resale of Chinese goods with a large margin (300-800%).
You can buy goods in bulk in China or from a wholesale supplier in a major city and start selling them online. Often such a scheme is also called "Business with China" - a very profitable and promising direction in Runet.
The team of our site is personally acquainted with a successful entrepreneur in this field, Evgeny Guryev. Zhenya not only has been running her business for a long time and effectively, but also teaches others about it.
If you want to launch your own startup in the near future and start earning 100-200 or even 500 thousand rubles in a few months - contact Evgeny and he will guide you by the hand on all issues of creating a successful business selling Chinese goods.
Be sure to check out the testimonial of the wife's students to be inspired by their success stories:
Yes, there are also certain risks here, but you can flexibly manage them, because in this case you yourself decide where to direct this or that money in order to get the maximum return from them.
It is especially effective to invest in your own business if it is already running, and your new investments will help the business bring even more profit.
Pros and cons of investing in your business
Pros:
- you manage your money yourself by building and optimizing business processes (being the owner of the business);
- for business projects, it is quite easy to find co-investors, which helps to attract larger amounts than if investments were made alone;
- it is easier to get a loan for a business than for other investment instruments.
Minuses:
- high risk of losing money;
- low liquidity of most assets (you cannot quickly sell equipment, goods, and the like without a significant loss in value);
- loss of a share in a business project (in case of attracting co-investors).

Owning a business from scratch is a rather risky undertaking. This requires a solid start-up capital, an original idea and a well-thought-out business technology. But there is an alternative option - to use a ready-made commercial model with a known payback period and guaranteed profitability.
The network of Japanese cuisine restaurants has its representative offices in Russia, China, Ukraine, Lithuania, Hungary, Kazakhstan and other countries. The main share of business falls on the Russian market.
Franchising is one of the leading activities of the Sushi Master company. The promoted product of the company is a predictable business with a proven and effective structure.
The owners pass the finished model to their partners, the latter only have to comply with the established standards in cooking and marketing, as well as maintain an appropriate level of service.

- Take a course at the training center in Krasnodar.
- You get the right to open a point under the SUSHI MASTER brand, an official contract, production technologies, original recipes.
- Together with the franchise owners, you choose a place for a restaurant, calculate the payback, and get the support of a start-up team.
- You open a restaurant.
- Together with the team, bring the project to a stable profit.
You will calculate the total initial investment together with the team in individually. Cost range: from 1.3 to 4.5 million rubles. The term for opening a restaurant is from 3 months.
The advantage of this model is that it is guaranteed to work. All possible problems and obstacles that may arise at the launch stage have a proven elimination algorithm. You do not work alone, but become a participant in a successful business that has already paid off more than 100 times before, brought and still brings profit to its owners.
The co-owner of the company, Alex Yanovsky, is the founder of his own School "Business behind Glass", a successful entrepreneur whom I know personally. In his honesty, as well as in the profitability of the franchise, I have not the slightest doubt.
The risks are minimal, and the support of the training center led by Alex Yanovsky is continuous and constant. At your disposal - the experience of successful businessmen, professional equipment, proven marketing technologies.
The market niche that you will occupy is now on the rise: there is an outflow of visitors from expensive restaurants to cheaper ones. Public catering establishments in the street format or the "island" format are in demand and popular - we offer these options to our partners.
5. Where you should not invest money so as not to burn out
You should not invest in obviously losing enterprises - casinos, illegal and morally unacceptable projects.
These include criminal types of business: trafficking in drugs, weapons, contract goods, organizing brothels, shell companies that launder money, as well as fraudulent schemes in real estate (corruption during construction, eviction of lonely old people and re-registration of housing).
To live in peace, engage in honest and socially acceptable ways of making money, then you will gain not only financial freedom, but also spiritual harmony.

In the next part of the article “Where to invest money”, I will talk about less common and at first glance not obvious ways to increase your capital.

Where is it more profitable to invest rubles in a crisis so as not to lose your savings - recommendations from experts + TOP-5 most profitable investment areas today
You go to work every morning, day after day, year after year. And your whole life is more like groundhog day. Every day is like the previous one. All your income received at work you safely spend on life. The result is a vicious circle. And what's next? you think. You need to change something in this life. One way to break the current situation is by investing.
After all, what is investment?
Investment is the investment of money today, with the aim of getting it tomorrow, but in a larger amount. Or getting a permanent passive income, from one day invested funds.
Of course, you won’t be able to find a large amount right away. Most investors start with very modest amounts, which they manage to put aside from their salary. The main thing here is constancy and time. Together with these parameters, any, even insignificant, capital can grow into a fairly decent amount, allowing its owner to receive a very good income that will exceed your current income. Please note that this will be a completely passive income, generated with little or no participation from you.
Beginning investors face many questions, the main of which is where to invest. Especially when it comes to a very small amount of money. It is the restriction on the amount of invested funds that makes its own adjustments to possible investments. But nevertheless, even with little money, there are many ways to earn and increase your hard-earned money.
Bank deposits or deposits are the simplest and most reliable type of investment. When you open a bank account, you will know in advance. how much income you will receive at the end of the term. And most importantly, GUARANTEED INCOME. Deposits are practically the only financial instrument, the profitability of which is known in advance. Other investments do not carry such a guarantee. In them you can both earn and lose. Also, do not forget that the safety of deposits is guaranteed by the state (in the amount of 1.4 million rubles). If the amount exceeds this threshold, then it is better to open several deposits in different banks.
Bank deposits are used mainly as a means of initial accumulation of capital. When a certain level of funds in the account is reached, other investment opportunities become available to the investor. Why? The answer is quite simple - very low profitability. Typically, deposit rates are within the inflation rate. Therefore, getting rich on investments in deposits is unlikely to succeed.
In difficult conditions economic situation in the country, currency deposits again began to gain popularity. The ruble is rapidly losing its positions in comparison with other financial payment systems. And in order to at least somehow preserve their savings, deposits are used in foreign currency. And although the yield on such deposits is quite modest, in the region of 2-5% per annum, real earnings may exceed the current yield by several times. Due to the weakening of the ruble and, accordingly, the strengthening of the currency.
It was foreign currency deposits that were the most profitable over the past 5 years, among the main types of investments. Those who opened similar deposits a few years ago have already earned more than 230% of profit. For comparison, simple ruble deposits over the same period showed a yield of 83%.
Other possible ways of investing in gold (buying bullion, gold coins) just have the disadvantages that are the advantages of CHI.

When it comes to offline investments, it is clear that this implies a direct appearance in the office, filling out a number of documents and losing a certain amount of personal time, but sometimes it’s worth it, since the investor has some protection from regulatory authorities, or guarantees from the side of the state.
The most common and most affordable way investing money is investing money at interest.
Of course, when it comes to a bank deposit, you should not count on an increase in funds, since the interest on the deposit does not even cover the real inflation.
Warning!
At the moment there are a huge number of banks offering various interest rates on deposits and, as a rule, the smaller the bank, the higher the rates, the reliability of such banks may be in doubt, but if you decide to invest in a bank deposit, you are insured, and in case of bankruptcy or revocation of the license, the money will be paid to you.
But in any case, you should not count on 100% reliability of a bank deposit, as political or economic circumstances may lead to freezing of funds.
Investing money in a bank deposit - advantages:
Investing money in a bank deposit - disadvantages: Low profitability, which does not cover inflation.
When opening a deposit, it is worth considering a few points:
A product that combines two functions: the accumulation of funds and life insurance (death, accident, illness, disability, survival).
As a rule, the term of the contract is 10-30 years. This product can be used as an opportunity to invest money to achieve an expensive goal (buying a property, paying for a child's education, etc.), or use it as an alternative to a pension, having accumulated a round sum by the time you retire.
That is, at the end of the program, you receive all the accumulated funds and additional investment income, but this income, most likely, will compensate for inflation, rather than increase funds.

Asking the question: “How to invest in gold and other precious metals?”, You should pay attention to the following, the most common ways:
Attention!
Impersonal metal accounts (OMS). This is an opportunity to buy some of the precious metal, which is credited to your account in grams, which lowers the threshold for entering this instrument, since you can make a purchase from 1 gram.

Warning!

Property in the right location is always a very good option to invest money.
In fact, the Internet opens up investment opportunities for people of all ages, regardless of occupation and profession.
Recall the traditional offline option - a bank deposit, the state offers to invest in a bank at 5-20% per annum (depending on the country), which does not even cover inflation. But the World Wide Web provides a wide range of highly profitable investments (from 40 to 90% per annum).
Investing money on the Internet is also attractive because you are not required to:
That is, absolutely everyone can invest money on the Internet, and it doesn’t matter what your gender or social status is!
Why do I choose fiduciary management? The bottom line is this: you put your funds at the disposal of a separate manager or company.
They, using their experience, capabilities, tools and knowledge, increase your capital. The investor and the company share the profit received in half 50/50%, but there may be other conditions.
By the way, a deposit in a bank is also a trust management. True, the profitability from it is much lower, since the bank itself invests in various assets and gives you only crumbs of its profits.
5 areas in which trust management is the most relevant:
From you, as an investor, active participation and special knowledge is not required. All work is undertaken by the manager. The most important thing is to find an intelligent manager who would increase your contribution well and competently.
Each manager and the company as a whole works according to a standard scheme. Every investor must have their own Personal Area, where it stores accrual statistics and account profitability history.
Attention!
Deposits and withdrawals are made using bank transfers and popular electronic payment systems (WebMoney, Qiwi, Yandex money, PerfectMoney, etc.).
Trust management is perhaps the most popular form of investing money:
For the same reasons, investing in trust management is also relevant for investors who own serious capital.
Where to find a successful and competent manager? Indeed, it is half the battle to know where it is profitable to invest, but the most important thing is to find an intelligent manager and a transparent company with which the investor could increase his capital. And here you have only 2 options:
Independent search for a successful company. Fortunately, there is no shortage of such companies on the Internet. But the downside is that you will have to make sure of their competence only on personal experience. The site can be very beautiful, attractive, with high ratings and recommendations, with very eloquent yield graphs.
But all this does not guarantee that the company really is. Therefore, you will have to spend time, conduct experiments, tests, and risk your capital.
The second option is more preferable - this is advice from other experienced investors. A knowledgeable and honest investor who has tried certain investment companies, who will warn against unprofitable sites, and also recommend where to invest money with maximum profit.
It is important to understand the essence of investing on the Internet: none of the experienced managers will give you a 100% guarantee that investing money in his account is the best and safest. The foreign exchange market is dynamic. He does not stand still and is able to the shortest time change in the most extraordinary way.
Therefore, no adequate trader has the right to guarantee profit. If you stumble upon this, know that they are lying to you, and brazenly. Even the most experienced and professional manager sometimes makes mistakes. Therefore, try to avoid promises of guaranteed profits.

Demand generates supply, and today the investor is offered dozens of places where it is profitable to invest money can be a profitable idea.
Startups are innovative companies that offer new technologies that simply did not exist before. Implementing new and unknown technologies in life, bringing them to the mass consumer is a very difficult task, which at the same time can bring thousands of percent of profit.
Advice!
Please note that: Every day there are new startups requiring investment. But only 10% of them work for more than a year.
In order to make money on investments in a startup, you need to make sure that the idea, goal, plan, team in a young company are well interconnected, if the company understands what it needs and what it does, this is an important component of success.
There are quite a few examples when startups literally from scratch turned into million-dollar companies, enriching their investors along the way. Today, there are special startup exchanges through which companies and investors converge.
A startup exchange is a site where startups register themselves, their offers, business plans and declare the amount needed to start.
Investors choose startups and invest in them. So each startup can have many investors. When a startup collects the requested amount, the project begins to work and, if successful, it will reward its investors.
Now that the American machine has stopped printing money in the same quantity, there is an opinion among rich and wise people that in the next 10 years new markets will not be born, since there simply will not be free funds in the world for this. In 2018, the startup market has shrunk. This was affected by the crisis and solvency.
I do this type of investment. A PAMM account is essentially very similar to a mutual fund, only it is managed by one person. A professional trader creates a special PAMM account with a broker. Initially, this account contains only its authorized capital, for example, $50,000.
Warning!
Over the past 7 years, many brokers on PAMM accounts were born and died. No matter what managers of existing brokers say, today there is only one leader - Alpari.
It is this broker that owns the PAMM account trademark, since it was he who invented this system.
By the way, now foreign brokers also have PAMM accounts, for example, the Swiss bank DukasCopy, although there the PAMM system is closed from the public and is available only by invitation.
Profit in this type of trust management borders on an average of 4-6% per month and 80-100% per annum if reinvestment is taken into account. Moreover, it is reinvestments that allow you to multiply your own profits and allow you to earn more than 800%!
This is very high percent, despite the fact that there are practically no risks with portfolio investments, and the minimum investment starts from $10. As you can see, this is the place where absolutely everyone can invest little money.
Alpari provides all the statistics and data on the manager's work, displays his transactions and trading volumes. At the moment, there are PAMM accounts that have been operating for more than 4 years and bring a stable profit.
Since managers have different trading strategies, the profitability of individual PAMM accounts varies. If the conservative ones bring 4-6% per month, then the aggressive ones can give out more than 170% profitability in one month!
When investing in 10-15 different PAMM accounts at the same time, you reduce risks to the very minimum. If one account for the reporting month brings a loss, then the rest will cover this loss with their profit.
PAMM accounts are available to everyone, from the moment of registration with a broker to an investment, it will take no more than 10 minutes.
Attention!
High profitability, practically no risks, long-term work of brokers and managers prove the stability and reliability of investments. High availability and transparency.
For five years of investment, I have not found any cons. This is a great opportunity to have passive income.
If money is deposited in a bank for safekeeping, then it is invested in the stock market to reap the benefits. The stock market is a platform where securities, goods and even services are bought and sold. The main platforms are stock exchanges. In Russia, this is the Moscow Exchange - the union of two previously separate sites of the MICEX and RTS.
It is not the investor himself who has the right to trade directly on world exchanges, but an intermediary - a broker with the appropriate license. An investor opens a trading account with a broker and through it buys stock assets, like securities and others.
For me this is very advantageous view investment. Not so long ago I tried all the possibilities of options and I am ready to tell you everything in detail.
A binary option is a contract with the condition of an increase or decrease in the price of an asset within a time period set by you. If your condition is met - the price of the asset rises or falls according to your forecast at a set time, then you make a profit. Everything is arranged in such a way that even a child will understand.
Best of all, I will immediately give an example: You buy binary option on Microsoft stock for 1 hour and indicate that the price will rise. If in an hour, the price of Microsoft shares will be higher than at the time of buying the option - you get 80% profit. If you invested $100, you could earn $80 in an hour.
You can invest in options for periods ranging from one minute to a week, you set the investment period yourself. Among the assets there are shares of the largest companies in the world, such as Gazprom, facebook, Google, Apple, Lufthansa, Mercedes, shares of world banks and corporations. And among the assets there are assets commodity market(oil, gas, gold), stock indices, currencies…
How to make money investing in options? Yes, very easy! Just follow the news. If you find out that Toyota starts selling a new series of cars tomorrow, it means that their shares will rise tomorrow.
Advice!
All you need to do is to invest in a Toyota stock option with a 1-day or even an hour price increase in the middle of the day or at the very beginning of it. If you find out that the tsunami flooded the Toyota plant, then their shares will fall and you can invest in an option with the condition of a price drop.
Thus, you see that you can earn not only on the growth of shares, but also on the fall. And there is a lot of news on companies every day, and thanks to a large number of assets, you can invest in options daily. It is enough to make only 2 successful transactions per day in order to earn more than $ 5,000 per month.
These are the most highly profitable investments, in just 5-15 minutes you can get from 70% of the profit. Many transactions can be made every day. Among the assets are the stock, commodity and foreign exchange markets. Available to absolutely everyone, the minimum investment is only $25
High returns come with high risks. Successful investments require preparation and careful analysis of the asset. Due to the possibilities of super short-term investments, the investor must have psychological stability, have his own strategy.
I have a lot of information on my blog on how to make money on options, you can read a little more about them here - Investing in binary options.
Investing in stocks is a fairly old and classic way. You can invest in stocks different ways depending on the company. The average return on shares ranges from 10 to 20% per annum.
But there are exceptions, for example, Nvidia shares in 2017 added 200%.
For established companies, the average growth can be 5% per year. For example, Google, this is already a huge business, imagine what he needs to do to increase the cost by 100% in half a year? It's practically impossible.
But it is enough for a small pizzeria to open a couple of new restaurants and conclude lucrative contracts in order to add 500% in a couple of months.
Buying shares through a broker is an interesting process, you can see for yourself - the broker FINAM-EU (Just2Trade) is a subsidiary of FINAM, the very rare international broker that allows you to start trading with a minimum deposit of $200, though Amazon shares that cost 700 You can no longer buy dollars with a minimum deposit.
Follow the link and get access. You will be able to see in practice how shares are bought and sold on the NASDAQ, XETRA, and other exchanges. There you can buy shares of Google, Microsoft and more than 10,000 companies from around the world.
Warning!
In addition to the billion-dollar companies that have already taken place, new ones are constantly appearing, the shares of which are very cheap, but their potential, as well as the price, can increase thousands of times. For example, the same Apple was once a small startup.
If you do not want to risk a lot of money but want to make money on stocks, CFD contracts are an ideal option - this is trading on the price difference.
The assets have more than 700 shares of various directions, such as Adobe, Electronic Arts, AMD, Ford and so on.
It is worth saying that now eToro is actively cooperating with Sberbank, which has invested more than $15 million in the company, and this is a good sign, because the international broker is now regulated in the Russian Federation.
It must be said that among the assets of eToro, not only stocks, but everything currency pairs, indices and commodities. The minimum deposit is $100, but I recommend starting with at least $150-200 so that you have the funds to copy multiple traders at the same time or buy multiple securities.
Shares are able to bring good profits, privileges and are long-term investments.
The minimum block of shares can cost a lot of money, and shares of unknown companies are quite risky.
Buying physical gold for future use is one of the old traditions of saving money. And today, gold bars are freely available in almost all banks in many countries, including Russia, Ukraine, Belarus. An ingot of gold can have different weights, it varies from 1 gram to 1 kilogram. Each bank sets its own price for it.
Please note that: Over the past 15 years, gold has experienced a price boom, but since 2012 it has been depreciating inexorably in price. To date, the future of gold is not entirely clear, and investments in gold can only be long-term.
This precious metal will not lose its main value, but even a small drop in price can bring losses to the investor, because not only capital is lost, but also time.
Attention!
A few years ago, Warren Buffett sold all his "gold" assets and did not lose. I think that in 2018 you should not rush to invest in gold, at least you should wait until stability is established in the oil sector. If you look at the rating of mutual funds (more on this below), you can see that in 2017 mutual funds engaged in gold have already suffered losses.
Metals have a certain physical reserve, so you should not expect strong drops in price. Metals are long-term and reliable investments. Investments in metals are available to almost everyone who has a bank account.
The price of metals is highly dependent on different economies. On the a large percentage profit should not be calculated. When selling gold in a bank, you must pay a tax of 13%, this is the percentage that can be achieved over several years of investment.
Compared to bank deposits, investments in the stock market are considered to be significantly more profitable. Although no one guarantees real profit. It all depends on the state of the stock market at the moment.
More voluminous in terms of money and types of companies is the foreign market, where even children know about shares. Investments abroad are mainly based on shares.
But in order to be successful in investing in stocks, it is not enough just to have money to invest, you must be well versed in business and be able to predict. For those who do not feel confident in these skills - the best choice there will be a trust.
Today, the most popular way for Russians to save money is a bank deposit. It inspires more confidence among citizens than investing in investment funds. Perhaps this is due to the inertia of thinking, because in the days of the USSR it was possible to invest personal funds only in a savings bank.
I would say that people do not invest money in banks, but simply deposit it. The only exceptions are very, very large amounts.
Interest income on bank rates small, on average 7-9% per annum, and the state insures up to 700,000 rubles each deposit against unforeseen circumstances.
Among the most reliable banks:
They offer not the largest, but stable and reliable annual interest: 7.25%, 7.4%, 7.4%, 8%. And yet, banks are a place where everyone can invest money, but it is difficult to call it an investment. Only a banker can earn in a bank, and a depositor can only save his money.
Warning!
The pros are that the banks are relatively reliable and you will definitely save your funds.
Cons: 7-10% yield does not justify itself, since the inflation rate is just at this level. It's hard to call it an investment.
Mutual Investment Funds are also one of the types of capital investment where it is profitable to invest money relative to the bank. Mutual funds are created to attract investments for the purpose of trading on commodity and stock exchanges, as well as real estate transactions.
Mutual investment funds have long been the most popular places where not every person from the street could invest money.
PIFs are of several types:
A mutual fund can be thought of as a trust – you buy shares and your money is managed by the company, causing the prices of the shares to rise. But as I said, in 2018 the risks are high. If you decide to invest in a mutual fund, it is worth investing in them not all the capital, but only some part. The yield ratings of mutual funds can be viewed on the pages:
http://website/pif.investfunds.ru/ratings/
http://website/www.nlu.ru/pif-doxod-renking.htm
If you decide to invest in a mutual fund, I advise you to carefully study not only the company itself, but also the market outlook, as well as ask for plans, ask a question about the future market of managers and make sure that they are confident in their actions and know how they will act in different situations.
The mutual funds are managed by professionals, but even they cannot stop the fall in prices. In this case, do not rush to sell shares. You have to wait until they rise in price again. In any case, in order to remain profitable, you need to invest in mutual funds for a long-term perspective of several years.
In order to earn and be able to invest in mutual funds, you need to have a solid capital. For the most part, investments in successful mutual funds start from half a million rubles.
At the same time, it is necessary to understand that it is safer to invest simultaneously in several different mutual funds. Also, for a successful investment, you need to understand and understand the stock market, stocks and the current state of the market, and other economic factors.
Advice!
A good mutual fund is highly reliable, as it is regulated by the state. In good years, the profit can be up to 80% per annum. Limited risks depending on the specific conditions of each mutual fund.
Long process of transferring and receiving money. If you do not live in the city where the mutual fund is located, then investments will be extremely inconvenient (signatures, documents, transfers). Good mutual funds may have high minimum investment thresholds.
100% returns are not uncommon in this free market. But only smart and tasteful investors can feel what exactly can have the greatest investment potential.
The most reliable investments are investments in famous artists of the last century. For example, Andy Warhol's Lemon Marilyn was purchased in 1962 for $250. After 45 years, it was sold for $28 million. 250,000% per annum.
It is worth saying that the main buyers of art are by no means amateurs and collectors, but players in the financial market.
Not all investors understand painting or artists, but this does not prevent them from making money on this. Such investors attract special consultants who make an objective assessment of the asset, verify the authenticity, and accompany the process of buying and selling.
With a competent approach, they bring not only aesthetic pleasure, but also high profits.
Requires a high understanding of the market. Assets generally do not have high liquidity, unless it is a painting by Monet or Van Gogh.
Many young people like to invest money in internet business. With the advent of the Internet, various ways of investing your capital have also appeared. All income on the Internet is based on services, trade and advertising. There are people who invest money in websites for advertising or trade.
Warning!
The payback period for an online business is approximately one to two years. If you invest 60,000 dollars in two projects, then in 2 years you can reach a profit of 80-100 thousand dollars.
Many people invest money in creating their own online business or store. In this case, it is not necessary to have your own warehouse. In this business, it is important to find a good supplier and the goods will go to their customers directly from him.
But in order for your store to be better and more famous than other competitors, you need to invest enough money in creating a functional website, advertising, and service. The implementation of such projects takes years, but the profitability is quite high.
A successful project can quickly pay for itself several times over and continue to make a profit for the rest of the time.
Investments in the Internet business can only be if there is good suggestions, which are unfortunately few.
Investing in real estate is quite conservative but profitable, especially during a crisis and asset depreciation. It is especially profitable to invest in real estate in large cities, crowded places and resort areas.
Investing in real estate requires a large capital investment that not everyone has. But you can start small: invest in the early stages of construction. Once completed, the value of the building will increase significantly. Real estate can be quite small, for example, a garage, which does not require huge investments.
Investment in residential real estate. The price of real estate is growing regularly, and this fact is an indicator of the high profitability of real estate investments. In the residential sector, it is better to prefer small one-room apartments that are in high demand among the population.
Investment in commercial real estate. Investments bring stable income commercial premises. Warehouses, offices, shops, beauty salons, etc. can be located there.
Investments in overseas real estate. Investors buy foreign property and then rent it out. This is also not a bad investment method.
When purchasing any kind of real estate, you need to consider many factors:
For most people, the words “investing in real estate” are associated with the goal of saving money, not multiplying it, so it is important to approach this issue very responsibly from the very beginning, to analyze the chosen object not from the consumer’s side, but from the investor’s side.
Pros: Reliability, wide range of offers.
Cons: Not a high profit, a minority have free money for real estate investments.

To be the main owner or a simple investor? Depending on your desire, you can invest in your own or someone else's.
Your business benefits:
The disadvantages include the risks of losing your own money and large investments at the stages of the formation of your company. In addition, be prepared to devote the lion's share of your time to business, and without knowledge in the field of activity, you will have to spend extra money on highly qualified management personnel.
Investing in someone else's business is much easier and less problematic in terms of management issues. All the work is taken over by a staff of specialists who promote and promote the business, while you simply receive dividends from the money invested.
An important factor affecting the availability of business, as such, for most miles of the population.
Depending on the size of the initial capital, you can focus on investing money in the business in whole or in part:
Full investment- the businessman plans to invest in the development of the project himself.
All difficulties in terms of the financial component fall on the shoulders of 1 person, which is very risky, especially for beginners. Investing money in this way is most often tried when opening your own business.
Partial investment- the businessman is one of many investors and buys out a share in the business.
The money received by the organization in this way is no more than 50%.
For full influence, companies retain a management share, and you receive a percentage of the development of the business as a whole.
Depending on the type of business and the scope of its activities, funding may be required at various stages of development.
Startups- business ideas that require you to invest money at the very beginning. A very popular direction, especially actively developing in the last 5 years.
The bottom line is to invest in the development of an idea. The better the project is thought out, the more likely it is to win support.
Invest in an established business literally anytime. Companies often look for additional sources of financing to expand their business.
In a hurry, you can profitably invest and receive a stable monthly passive income.
If you plan to manage the company or participate in its development, active income. Whether running your own business or owning more than 50% of the company's assets, management will become an integral part of your operations.
At passive income all responsibilities are transferred to the management personnel of the company. The maximum that may be required of you is a signature on the documents as one of the investors.
Depends on the scope of the company. The network may consist of several organizations operating in the same key. The invested money is distributed among the most problematic items of financial activity.
Direct investments- All money goes to the development of one organization.
The company's assets are not scattered and belong to one owner.
Portfolio investments– buying a stake in more than one company.
The sum of all interest components forms a stock portfolio.
The described criteria are not a rule. You can make your own list, which will help you analyze the market and decide on a business worth investing in.
A wide variety of directions can confuse you as an investor at the beginning of the journey. Invest in industry, or maybe buy shares of a popular company?.. It is worth soberly assessing the development potential of the chosen business area.
let's consider 6 main directions of cash injections, which at the output will give you a guaranteed profit with minimal risks.
Agree, this is the first decision that comes to mind when faced with the question of which business to invest in. The complexity of such a case lies in the amount of effort invested, both financial and physical.
You will have to work for yourself, and it will not be possible to shift the responsibility for mistakes to someone else.
Management skills and knowledge in the field of work are only welcome, they will help develop the company and increase its profitability many times over.
According to statistics, about 70% of projects go bankrupt in 1.5 years without starting to generate income for the owner. The problem lies in the inexperience of businessmen and many factors that are difficult to predict even for specialists.
Developing a clear business plan will help reduce risks by 20-30%.
Can be distinguished 5 steps to create your own business . By following these instructions, you will be able to properly invest money and recoup the costs in adequate time frames.
One of the most important steps. With the active conduct of business, much will depend on you, therefore it is rational to choose the field of activity that you have an idea about. And even better if there are skills to work with it.
Beginners are not afraid to try something new. Finding a promising project for your region is the primary goal of any private business.
Don't dismiss an idea just because it's not very popular. Perhaps you refuse a gold mine and then regret it more than once when others occupy this niche.
Demand + Quality Plan = Success
This formula applies to all business as a whole.
Maintaining interest in a product or service among consumers is a real art. Pay due attention to this aspect, since after the start of business development, it is very problematic to change activities without high costs.
The legislation of the Russian Federation provides for the conduct of any business on a legal basis.
If you are planning to open a small business, then pay attention to registration as an individual entrepreneur. This step will enable you to pay tax fees under the simplified taxation system, which, in turn, will reduce the burden on financial indicators your company.
With low profitability of the business, the usual tax system will be a more profitable solution.
Contributions to the treasury go as a percentage of the company's profits - this scheme has shown itself well in practice in small and medium-sized businesses.
Small business has 2 common solutions - LLC or IP. What to choose depends on the size of the amount you want to invest and the scope of your project.
| Type of registration | Advantages | Note |
|---|---|---|
| IP |
| The time spent on registering an individual entrepreneur will be about 5-6 business days. Efficiency depends on the speed of submitting the required package of documents and paying the required fees. |
| OOO |
| The disadvantages of an LLC include a large number of securities accounting. The registration fee here will be 5000 rubles. |
Receiving / issuing funds in any case will be accompanied by a non-cash way. Nowadays, without the help of a bank in terms of non-cash transfers, there is no way.
Hypothetically, an individual entrepreneur can do without, but many procedures will become more complicated, and restrictions will prevent your business from developing to the fullest.

Don't panic if you don't make a profit right away. Starting your own business is a long process. It may take up to 1 year to get the first net income, depending on the profitability of the project and the amount of money invested.
About 50% of large corporations, both domestic and world markets, were able to win consumers in most countries in this way. Constant financial injections allow us to open new departments and expand the business as a whole.
As a result, everyone is happy - investors who receive interest on their investments, and company management, expanding and strengthening their positions in the consumer market.
Tip: If you want to manage a company from the shadows, but not have a direct job as a leader, look for a business where you can capture the largest share.
You will be able to control the decisions of the top, but protect yourself from the routine tasks of the head of the company.
The degree of influence on management is determined by the size of the share in the business. In order to avoid conflicts of interest, it is better to stipulate controversial points in advance and fix the results on paper in the form of an official document.
The investor, due to high risks, receives up to 85% of the income from the business. The author of the idea performs a leading function and traces the direction of business development.
There are several ways to invest in startups:
The most acceptable way to invest money for a newbie in business. You invest a certain amount in several startups, which reduces the risk of complete failure.
How to make a profit:
The method under consideration has the risk that the idea will never see the light of day. Where your money will go in this case is another question. Usually they are simply returned back to investors.
However, the legislation of the Russian Federation provides for guarantees only in the case when the investor actually has shares of a company in his hands, which are irrefutable proof of the financial transactions with an object. This also needs to be taken into account.
The most famous crowdfunding platforms:
Investing money one-time with this method will not work. The essence of the method lies in periodic financial support from investors. The minimum amount to invest should not be less than $40,000, while the maximum depends on the scale of the project.
Important: Projects with such a bias in 90% of cases do not have product prototypes, therefore the risk of losing money increases significantly.
It is not known how the consumer market will react to the novelty.
To minimize risks, it is worth investing in 3-4 ideas with good potential.
Choose only those areas in which you can assess the potential for the development of the project. Experience in areas of activity known to you will allow you to objectively assess the possibilities of promoting an idea, as well as point out errors in its implementation, if any.

You transfer money to a specialized company, which itself selects projects with high development potential. The club receives a percentage of the injections, and you save your personal time and effort to find a good idea.
The risk of this method is associated primarily with fraudulent schemes in business. When choosing a club, pay attention to its reputation and reviews on independent startup forums.
Often, in order to get more customers, the company selects ideas according to a simplified scheme, which increases the likelihood of losing money in case of failure.

Funds invest money only in projects that in the future will be able to recoup the investment. In practice, only 40-60% of ideas will be able to find their owners in the country's consumer market.
The lack of support from the state and the high cost make the idea of creating a personal fund practically unattainable in our country. However, the profit in case of success will be 10-15 times the amount of investments annually.

Stock- a security with the right to a share of a particular organization. One of the most reliable ways to get money in the investment business.
Tip: Before buying securities, study the market and its trends very carefully.
Speculation in stocks is a whole science that requires the right approach and planning for each step of buying / selling.
There are not so many ways to make a profit from stocks. All of them are based on price fluctuations or receiving interest from the owners of the company.
How to earn:
Speculation.
The bottom line is buying shares at a low price and selling securities after their rise in price. The difference is your income.
Working with a broker.
Borrow shares from a broker, sell when the price drops, and buy back immediately. Pay off the borrower, the rest is your gain.
Dividends.
Acceptable method if available a large number shares of a rapidly growing company.
If you have a large shareholding, you can influence management decisions. However, without knowledge of the company's field of activity, such intervention will not bring anything good.
About 90% of traders on the stock exchanges make a profit only on the resale of shares and are quite satisfied with the monthly income, the size of which has no upper ceiling on earnings.
Debt obligations reduce the risk of non-payment of funds, however, there is always the possibility of bankruptcy, which will leave you without investments.
Important: The growth of coupon income is proportional to the risks of non-redemption of bonds and loss of invested money.
You can earn on bonds through speculative transactions and coupons. You have no right to interfere in the management of the company. The only thing that can be influenced is the terms of payments on bonds.
Mutual investment fund allows you to invest money in a direct way. An asset portfolio is a hodgepodge of various stocks, bonds, and other securities of value.
plus such a business is the passivity of the funds received. All the work is done by the fund, and the commission for the work is not charged to the depositor. You only need to invest money.

Pavel Bagryantsev on investment:
Each business has 2 parties - the owner and the investor (sometimes it is the same person). The main goal of a businessman is to profitably invest money and get income from them as soon as possible.
The company's management pursues a different goal - to realize the money received and strengthen its position in the consumer market. Both those and others seek to minimize risks.
There are 2 main groups of risks:
Economic.
Change legislative framework or fluctuations in financial market can pretty much beat up a business and lead you to a debt hole.
Timely tracking and allocation of additional expense items in the business plan will save money and solve almost any problem.
Commercial.
All changes that may affect the company with which you cooperate.
The object of your investment must have high liquidity and pace financial development, the risk of losing money will then be reduced to 0.
Insurance contracts can help solve the problem of losing money, but you cannot do without an experienced lawyer. Especially business projects with direct investment of money need such documents.
If the business fails, you will have a chance to receive at least some compensation.

From the beginning of the development of capitalism as economic system there is an opportunity and need to invest money. Moreover, not only large investors and businessmen should deal with investments, but absolutely every person who wants to call himself financially literate. But where can you invest money if there are not so many of them?
If you think that there are no such options, then you are mistaken, and the United States is a vivid example of the refutation of this judgment. Citizens of this country, regardless of the standard of living, wealth and wages, mostly engaged in investment activity. They buy stocks, bonds, promissory notes ... however, where you can invest capital will be discussed further.
I spoke about this in previous articles and I will say it again: in the life of every person there should be two types of money - assets and liabilities. If you have capital that you hid for a rainy day, then you need to get rid of it, this is the essence of the capitalist system. As a rule, it is advisable to invest such money in assets. In fact, your capital will remain in the same amount, but it will begin to bring you profit. Moreover, this income will be passive, i.e. you don't have to put in any effort. Work where you used to work, while getting a good salary increase.
1. The asset that most people create is bank deposits. You give a certain amount to the bank, for which you receive an annual interest. As a rule, the yield of this instrument is from 10 to 15% per year, which, in my opinion, is too low. And taking into account the fact that in the post-Soviet countries the inflation rate sometimes reaches all 50%, then such an asset is unprofitable, you need to look for other options. However, it's better to have money in a bank than in a toilet bowl or under a mattress.
2. A more profitable option is the shares of large companies. By investing in them, you will receive dividends, and if the contribution was large enough, then you will get the opportunity to manage the company's activities through the board of directors. Moreover, the shares are not subject to inflation, so you can not worry about your investments.
To buy this type of securities, you need to register on the website of a financial broker, fund your account and make a purchase. You can also use the Moscow Stock Exchange directly or find a shareholder-seller yourself via the Internet. You can also sell shares on the stock exchange. 
3. Another option for investing in securities is bonds. In fact, these are the same bank deposits, only in growth you give money not to a bank, but to a large organization that issued bonds. At the same time, your income on them is much higher than on deposits in the profitable bank. As a rule, you receive more than 25% per year on a bond. It is worth mentioning here that banks also invest money in these securities, insure themselves against inflation and earn the difference between the interest on the deposit and the interest on the bond.
4. For lovers of "investment extreme" investments in PAMM accounts and mutual funds are recommended. At the same time, you give money to neither a bank nor a large company, but investment firm or private trader. Your capital goes to the financial exchange, where the manager, who knows how to predict the exchange rate or shares, is trying to increase it.
If he trades for profit, then part of this profit (50% or more) is received by you, and the rest goes as a reward investment company. Moreover, if a trader trades at a loss, then the money is not returned to you, you take all the risks. It often happens that the manager loses all the money, and you do not get a penny. The risks, of course, are high, but the profit can reach up to 100% of the invested funds per month. 
5. How many times have you been asked for a loan? I think a lot, because people always need money. You can use this and give private loans at a certain percentage. In this case, the borrower must draw up a receipt so that you have a document with which you can go to court and demand payment of the debt. Give loans better people reliable, who have a permanent job and a good income. In general, look at how banks work and do the same.
6. Investing in your own education is also an asset, because the knowledge gained will later bring you money. If you don’t know where to spend the accumulated funds, you can pay for a contract at a prestigious university or sign up for a series of trainings from a private person. In any case, this knowledge will definitely not be superfluous to you, and thanks to it you will earn even more money.
7. The most profitable investment option has been and remains your own business. If you feel entrepreneurial in yourself and think that you can become a successful entrepreneur, and besides, you have the start-up capital for the business, then what are you waiting for? Draw up a business plan immediately, take the money and start building a beautiful life, because there will be no other chance.
There are people whose liabilities can become assets. The fact is that when you spend money on yourself and increase your standard of living, your motivation to work increases. You understand that you can earn even more, and strive to reach new heights. Of course, this attitude is not characteristic of everyone, some reach a certain level and stop there. And if you are one of those people who can simultaneously increase their needs along with opportunities, then believe me, you will reach great heights, and business is your destiny.
If you want to insure your investments, you can apply diversification. In this case, you will not buy one investment product, but several at once. For example, it can be shares of several companies, a couple of bonds, a bank account and a deposit in an investment company. In this case, if one of your assets "burns out", you will not be left without money and will be able to exit difficult situation through other investments. 
If you enter the phrase “Where you can invest money to earn big money” in a search engine, then in addition to the normal options described above, you will see a lot of pyramid sites or outright scams. The main sign of a scam is fabulous money with minimal investment and skills. If you find another such “mega-option”, you can safely close the page, because apart from the lost funds and time, nothing awaits you there.
Money must work, and that says it all. If you do not have a single asset, then you will not be able to call yourself a fully successful person. After all, assets are both a source of income, and a means of insurance in case of dismissal, and a good reserve that can be quickly cashed out. You now know where you can invest money, you just have to pull yourself together and start your path to success and financial independence.
