Thread: If you had $10,000, what would you invest in?

As investments go, $10,000 isn't particularly much. It's a lot less than investing in property and in the current climate, shares are probably not the safest bet.
So, if you had $10,000, where would the money go? Obviously, as this is a webmaster forum, this is focusing on where would you spend your money in terms of purchasing new sites, SEO, hiring etc. etc. whatever you can think of.
It'd be interesting to see where people see the real money in webmastering, lying.

Myself, I think i'd split it 25/25/25/25. 25% on expanding on the sites I already own, 25% on purchasing new sites, 25% on advertising and 25% to put behind as backing for them as they grow. I see the money in webmastering, mostly in development, especially in the current climate.

I suppose it would depend what projects i was on at the time , but i would probably do something like this :

$1000 on Advertising
$1000 on Current projects ( freelancing etc )
$5000 on Purchasing another site, one that already earns more than $500 a month and i knew i could improve it.

The rest would be for a rainy day because we all know being a webmaster something always comes up when you least expect it

I would try to get my hands on some porsche shares for arround 6k bucks and put the other save on bank for like 3-5% and maybe use it to invest in a damn good project but I dunno right now :D

Why would you invest in porsche shares ??? they are never going to grow a good amount more than they already are, its a pointless investment , just because they are a successful company it doesnt mean that your shares will remain stable

Buy domain, advertise. Keep some of them for future use.

Shares are pretty much one of the most unreliable sources of income at the moment. Having said that, they are super low, so if you spent a lot around the market, you'd turn over a profit I am sure.
