    Well I have quite a bit of money i want to invest in something that I can make money, but the problem is I have no skills. I mean I have an adsense account and can find my way around the internet but thats about it.

    Thanks, Ty

    Enter Joint Venture as an investor, where you don't have to do anything, but you make profits.

    Just put it in a fixed deposit account in the bank or buy some investment funds.

    There is a 90% chance that if you do spend it online you will lose it all because even if you get something good from it you won't be able to keep it good.

    You may have to learn a lot.

    Maybe you should not be investing your money, but instead some time and effort to learn the ropes.

    With a skill level of just being able to find your way around the Internet, you will probably find your money disappearing as gravetzt noted.

    I guess finding my way around the internet was a bad term. I spend a ton of time on the internet, and know it very well. But when it comes to the technical stuff, and things like building websites, html, etc I am not very good.

    Thanks, ty

    instead of learning how to do html/coding/selling and buying sites
    learn how the stock market works, and invest your money in stocks
    but don't put all your eggs in one basket

    And don't go around telling people you have a bunch of money but don't know what to do with it!!! Someone's gonna rip you off otherwise!

    Don't worry. I am much smarter than to partner up with someone I don't know.

    Thanks, Ty

    *To everyone else thank you very much for your ideas!!*
