stock market?

What your friend's dad invested in was stocks that pay dividends. It is still possible to find stocks that pay these. Some pay monthly, both most pay quarterly or annually. It is still possible to do this in the market of today's world.

In this kind of economy, I would suggest doing a lot of research. Perhaps you could invest in something like Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Johnson N Johnson, or something else that has been around for a long time and is not very likely to go away.

By the way, saiduntothem, I noticed that you are quite new here on myLot. I would like to send out a great big "WELCOME" to you. I hope you will enjoy your time spent here.

It is possible if your friend`s father invest in a solid company. In these times may seems a bad idea to invest in the stock market, but there are still very good options to invest your money. But you need to do your homework and read, read and read.
For example, the shares of Goldman Sachs cost around 60 dolars in may if I remember correctly. A few months later the share cost over 120 dollars.

So in conclusion, you can make money in the stock market, but you have to be very careful, is not a business for novice
