Stocks:Bank of America

Genco

Apple

Gm (very iffy but could be great)

GM is way too risky. Apple is too high tech to thrive in a long drawn out depression. Bank of america is a solid bet because it cant and wont fail. Too bad we have no clue what the restructuring of the banks will do to its market value

Windmill producers, and solar panels. The place around here that makes wind turbines is contracted for the next 5 years, and those things aren't cheap.
The stimulus bill is tailor made to make these companies succeed.

too high tech to risk it on, although it is better than most stocks you can do better than that.

Also the university of Maryland just posted an article about how windmills drastically effect wind currents and may actually cause air stagnation and global warming LOL

I woulnd't mind throwing a couple hundred to a thousand or so on GM, if they turn it around they could easily rise10X or more in price.

Why are you guys hellbent on GM? If I was going to invest in either of the two car companies, it would be Ford. Ford is the only one right now who can survive through 2009 and their stock is the same price as GM's.

Because everyone has these big dreams of investing $10 and becoming a bajillionaire.

They can do the same with Ford and not risk bankruptcy as much. Hell, I just read GM wanted to buy back stock for 30 cents on the dollar. The UAW didn't even want GM's stock.

makes sense to me that gm will buy it back now, knowin or thinking there will be a turn around soon, and sell later:crazy:

They are wanting to buy back bonds at .30; not stock.

They offered stock to the UAW instead of cash for the VEBA fund, and the UAW wouldn't even touch that stock.

Touche. Makes better sense.

Gm and Ford are both goign to by "risky" investments. But If you invest your money in GM and they do come back, you have a way better chance to last w/ them then w/ Ford. Ford's high is in the last couple years was around $14.83 Gm's high was right around $49.80. I doubt GM will go under as they are so huge, but quickly becoming very small.

But like I said before Bank of America is going to be a VERY good stock to invest your money in! They won't go under, especially now due to the stimulus plan, they are the LARGEST bank right now, etc. It's a very safe bet for a put it in now and wait it out investment.

The only reason why I recomened apple is it's a good buy now and sell in the same day to make $30+. Especially with the beginning of the year, means new product and people will go crazy over. CES is right around the corner as well. So if you have the money invest in them on a day were they open lower and then sell when it's higher. But be careful on what time you sell and stuff at. Apple was a record for highs and lows in a day usually.

Equity linked index annuity. Market goes up, you keep the gains. Market goes down, you lose $0. Tax-deferred growth too.

dead serious PG is Procter & Gamble...the world's largest household goods producer. Berkshire Hathaway (Warren Buffet) is the single largest shareholder. I work for P&G..we just posted 8 Billion dollar profits last quarter where a lot of other competitors were posting losses.
