im looking for a safe and highly profitable route for investing money
I was considering investing in CDs but their interest rate is a mere 0.29% for 12 month fixed term

I have heard something about DRIP Plans, but im not sure what those are
I want to stay away from the stock market as i have lost money in the past in it.
I was considering investing in precious metals(gold, silver, copper, platinum, etc)
anyone have any suggestions?

thanks in advance

The best way to do it is to spends hours and hours every day researching market forces and the economy so you can predict what opportunity will be most profitable.

first of all: DON'T FUCKING ASK JSP....
second of all: speak with a broker or a banker.

I use TD Ameritrade but there are others. Make sure they are unbiased.
You don't want one that insists that their investment options are best....

My grandparents are stuck on Merrill Lynch but I don't really like bank funds. I like tangible funds... like gold and oil... ;)


HTH!

Real estate in my area, all depends on your situation and location.
But real estate is always a good investment if you do your research.
