So, you have all of this money to invest, and you want to do something with it. Could I suggest a decent high yield investment program?

An HYIP is a way to invest any amount into a program that has the possibility of returning a high yield. Although there are some risks, that risk is an intrinsic part of the HYIP.

Getting started is easy: You find an HYIP monitor site that you like. It may sound strange, but there a lot of HYIP scams out there. As information is your defense against scams, you want to check out a monitor site in order to see which HYIP’s are scam and which ones are okay. Also, take advantage of lurking to ask a few questions, taking full advantage of your amateur status to ask a few questions that more experienced people wouldn’t. Ignore those that will insult you, and tell you run; they need to weed out those that are just playing, and it’s more effective than you would think.

Also, find a site that deals in e-gold that you are comfortable with. HYIP’s tend to deal with e-gold more commonly than other forms of payment, so it would help if you had an e-gold account.

Once you’ve gotten all the information you think that you can handle, then start plugging away at the HYIP’s. Start slow, with maybe one or two just to get your feet wet. On these initial ones, don’t put too much money into them; when you’re just getting started you just want to get your feet wet, not go straight for the deep end. Keep in mind that you can still ask questions; you can even start answering some questions for others.

Once you’ve gotten a few HYIP’s under your belt, you’re ready for the next step: bigger risks. Start expanding the HYIP’s you have, and put more money into them. The idea is to start determining limits; you need to establish for yourself how many you can handle at once, and how much you are willing to gamble. At this stage, you need to keep a close eye on your account, to make sure that you don’t spend too much on HYIP’s. Once you are comfortable with the number you are managing, you can slowly increase the number.

The way you can tell you are on the road to success is if you are pulling a profit. In your initial foray, profit didn’t matter; you needed to just get your feet wet. At some point, however, you should start pulling some kind of profit and using that to fuel your investing. Eventually you should either hit a point where you are making a profit. If, after a few weeks, you haven’t started making a profit, then you need to think about getting out.

If you are still in, enjoy. You should hit the point where you can quit your job and start dealing with HYIP’s exclusively. Just remember to keep an eye out for scams, and you should do okay.
