lots of good advice on here such as NOT to invest in gold or keep in a sock, or safety deposit box. Talk to a few advisors and pick one, start at your local bank but move on and talk to people that are reccomended by people here or from other friends, family, co-workers, etc. I'm doing better than OK on my own using e-trade I get not everyone is willing nor has the time for this (being kid free helps).
Anyways there are alot of good advisors out there and even more that aren't, talk to a minimum of 5 and hopfully you'll meet 1 good one. if you don't feel comfortable with them, keep looking good ones are out there but can seem hard to come by.

talk to several advisors... I might want to find one i'm comfortable with for my basic long term retirement needs before he/she learns what kind of dough i'm really working with. You might be more comfortable trusting someone if their vision isn't skewed by $$$.

Silver and Gold, Silver and gold is the primary investment i would make. Any others will be worthless if you know what happens with our economy.

Call the Vanguard Group get into there Index Funds These so called advisors take 1 to 1.5% Vanguard has very low cost the funds your advisor will have very high cost. This year the index beat 90% of the managed funds. Average over 10 yrs beats 70% of the managed funds.

This is how you weed them out. Good post/ bad post. What's in their portfolio ? You have one extreme to the next. The old saying, " it takes money to make money ". There are some very good posts on here,and some others,not so much. I've had my highs and lows, but I'm still ahead. Great advice on this thread,you have to be smart enough to read through the BS. Good luck and don't be in a hurry.
 
I'm no expert but there seems to be a lot of good advice on here and equally a lot of bad advice IMO. My advice (which you might say is worth about what you paid for it) is to pick up Dave Ramsey's book The Total Money Makeover and start there. There's a section of the book devoted to investing and he does a real good job of dumbing it down and making it easy to someone who might be clueless on investing (like I was).

Good one bigvin. You must be overhearing too many storys. I still got all 9 of my fingers.

There was a knock on the door today. A heavy handed one I must add. I didnt dare peek out the blinds.

I have been researching and reading up. Lots of ideas.

Oh I hope it all went down before the first of the year. I do believe as of the firs of the year one of the new tax's in Oboma Care is a 50% inheritance tax. Might look into it before you start spending. Got to pass it so we can read it.

So this looks like web bull!

When somebody says Alot of $$ it means something different to everyone to some that could be 10 grand and others that is 10 billion. Depending on the amount of money depends on how it is invested.

Amen. And some of us earned our chunk of change. Remember easy come easy go.
