My dad is a financial planner and he has for himself and recommends to his client the international stock fund from Dodge & Cox.

With a $5000 investment you will likely make about $1000 in a year with that fund. Like Tony said, Roth IRA's are great too. You should invest your money in multiple ways.

Spend the money on as many bottles of Boone's you can fit into those little red plastic crates, find a red light district that's suffering from loss-of-pimps and start distributing your flavorful treats to all in attendance. If played right, you could make your money back in one evening spent with your new close friends.

invest in a mutual fund.
search for: CWGIX
my grandparents told me to invest in that shit, it has an average of 17% annual return, and has shot up 4 dollars in the past 2 months, its only had one down year in its history, and posted a return of 40% one year, pretty crazy, its one of the best performers on wall street

metals are getting expensive period.. did you see the prices of copper? pennies havent been made of solid copper since the late 70's to mid 80's.
That's even more of a reason to buy it. Only fuck with gold, it will always be in demand forever. Put it this way, I bought I gold coin for $500, 7 days later it's worth $700. Imagine how much it will be worth after 5 years. Also with the way the dollar is going down, saving paper money is pointless..

^ don't say that. Diamonds really aren't all that rare, in fact a lot of the stones that we buy for cheaper are really more rare than diamonds, but deBeers and other companies mine the diamonds, but store them and only release a limited amount each year to keep the price artificially inflated so they can control their profit margins. Only a small percentage are actually released that are mined every year.
Gold is a much better bet.
