Why not stocks?
Stocks are the simplest way to invest. Go to a brokerage house such as Bestinvest and open an account.
For less than your set amount you can become part owner of a business. (That is what it means to own a share of stock.)
If you buy stock hoping that you can sell it for a quick profit because of the daily or monthly swings in price, then you are gambling rather than investing.
If instead, you buy quality stocks and hold on to them over a period of time, the share prices will go up for a real reason - the companies are earning money every year and becoming more valuable. This is not gambling; you are owner of a money making business. But it takes time to earn money.
. .
Essentially you're asking us to predict the future, which nobody can do. We do not know any more than you do, what prices will be tomorrow or next year.
By "good things," I presume you mean "things" or "investments" that will make money. But nobody "knows" which investments will make money or lose money, and if we did, we wouldn't "know" how long that would take.
That's why investing is a process, not an answer or Secret or sentence or paragraph or any single book or video or webinar or seminar.
Investing is the process of learning how to invest, or giving your money to some "expert" or mutual fund and letting them decide for you.
Just type "how to invest in stock market" in the Search Y! Answers box at the top of your screen and you'll get lots of Answers, or type "how does stock market work."
Read a good book or three, like Investing For Dummies, available at your local library for free.
