superlott asked:


I have more or less $50-60 dollars that I want to start investing for the long run. What kind of stocks will do best for me in the long run? What stocks are safer and which are more risky?

      You should probably do mutual funds rather than specific stocks.

      You could open a Roth IRA if you have earned income, and you can put your money into a stock mutual fund (an index fund that mirrors the total stock market or the S&P 500 would be a good long-run vehicle).

      With only $50-60 you’d be better off with the diversity that a stock mutual fund presents.

      Consider getting a mutual fund. CAIBX is good (Capital Income Builder). You can start with $50/month. This is from American Funds.
