Enough discussion with bux and ptc. Let's talk about something fun. Suppose I gave 1 thousand and tell you to invest it in any programs listed below. It does not matter to me if you loose it all. It's a play money for you. So, tell me where would invest that thousand in: a)- Certified Deposit (or CD) guaranteed by bank at a certain interest rate and usually is low but secure.There is no risk here. b) buy stocks at the stock market. It depends on the market bull and bear. It's pretty complicated and risky. c)invest in your favorite PTC program, perhaps buy referrals, upgrade to gold membership ect... or have your own PTC prgrogram. XXXBux or buxXXX d) Invest in autusurf program, e) Invest in HYIP Programs f) Invest in paycycler or matrix g) other You can invest in any way you want . All in one or a combination. What would you do with that 1 thoisnad dollars?

I'll choose C. It's fun and has a huge return of investment. Thanks for the $1000.00. Even it's just a game, it excites me. Now, let me savor the moment while it last.

I would be really tempted to investing in passion ice tea lemonades at Starbucks, but that's not really a good return on the investment, so I guess I'd trade foreign currency with an auto-trader to see how I'd do. It's a lot easier losing your money than mine!!! Thanks for fueling the dream!! Robert

That's cool forex. I though of that but have not yet had a change to try. It looks complicated to me. Maybe one day I have enough money I will try that. Life is just a dream, money is only a numbers. what's the hell why not live to the fullest and go with a dream

forex trading is fun however looks can be decieving. it looks hard and seems hard if you were to read all the how to books but in all reality just keep an eye on the different market charts and buy low then sell high for what comes down will go back up. Also there are alot of forex scam sites so do your research one the site and company to make sure they are a ligit forex trading site.

this is a noble idea, but nothing much is legit.. perhaps(and i really do mean perhaps) you get lured to the dark side of running away with the money.. or people are going to think the same way.. all because of the skeptical and cautious world!

I'll definitely invest everything in a certified deposit he he he he...If I have around 9000 already in my bank account, then I'll add the 1000 and use it as a down payment to buy a small house somewhere here with a 30-year installment.

You are risk advert. you take risk but not the unknown risk. You like calculated risk. I think I'd like to stick to what you know than go to the unherat of or known to have a risk of failure. Good luuck with your money my friend. Since I know you will guard your money well

If I had a thousand dollars, I would play it safe and put it in a CD and let it draw interest. I would not buy stocks, not in this economy and the other investments just seem a little too risky for me.

Honestly, i am scared of investing money in the internet.I would love to but still looking for an assurance that its legit and my money will not just gone.I have signed up for some legit sites though and been paid many times but still i am still scared to invest my money.My hubby invested in E-Trade.I might be also in the future.

Yep I agree with msedge, I'm also afraid of investing money on the internet. It's so risky to lose money, exactly I'm also a member of many legit sites but still never invested money with those sites. Have a nice day, and good luck with your earnings!

If I had the time, I would invest it in the stock market. I would want to investigate for myself and choose 3 or 4 different stocks to buy. I think this would be the most fun to follow and try to determine when is the best time to pull out and reinvest. With your $1,000 it wouldn't matter if I lost it all but I'd sure have a great time! This is the time to buy right? Thanks Maria!

if it's for a long term i will purchase a bond. here in uae there's a chance of winning to millions every draw (once a month) and at the same there's a small profit every year too and no tax

I'm so sorry for coming in so late. Interesting question. I'd invest 50% in CD and 50% in stock market.

D. is not an option for me because in the past i lost alot of money on autosurf programs. So i would invest $500 in C and $300 and $200 in G.

If i every fell into a large sum of money i would try to invest into something that could keep earning me more money. Unfortunately $1,000. wouldnt cover it. Most people would say buy a house or car. I would start a business then with the profit i could get house and car.

Hi there. As long as you don't want the money back i think i would just deposit the money on my economy card account that i have (it has a 8,25% interest rating) and i will probably use it next summer to go on vacation with it.
