Individual stocks are risky. Bonds don’t pay a danged thing. Put the money in good mutual funds that match the market at 10% or more growth per year over its life..Gold and other metals are too volatile and you don’t have possession of them..Lottery tickets – a tax on the lower class..Invest even $100 a month starting in your 20s in good index funds and when you reach retirement age you will have over $1,000,000. And that is if you do nothing else.
