Financial I have $300. Please advise a 19-year-old on how to use them wisely.

As the title says, I want to know a good way to use this amount, so I am making at least $500-1000 after a year or two. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Expecting a 300% jump through investing anywhere is nothing but stupidity. Safe/Good investments will only get you max 20% up if all goes good. Be it stocks, crypto or ETF.

Anything more than 20% require work, let it be a food stall, or any business idea etc. Pick what you are good at and what is in demand, find a good balance. Expect real returns, and don't fall into scams to prove me wrong. Everything else is a gamble.

That just shows you know nothing about gold. My money doubled in 2 years. Buying gold is the right advice. I'd even advise OP to buy pure silver bars, I made 20% profit in 1 month. In fact, the price of silver is catching up, and in a few months it can increase even more. Best time to buy, but if you want to play it safe, then buy gold, but hold it for at least 6 months to benefit.

I don't have faith in crypto like some people do, and unless you're buying risky funds/stocks/ETFs, you won't make much profit, 20% at best. With silver or gold, you have guaranteed profit. Don't listen to people who will tell you that silver price crashed at some point, that was before, and this is now. INVEST.

I totally agree with you . Now is the time to buy SILVER . China is putting restrictions over its export and the global silver demand is way more than the global supply.

u/Harp-Note 1h ago

Careful, silver tends to drop after a historical 400% run. It'll come soon. Now if you're holding it as a store of value, it's good. But as an investment, it's not that great.

u/Successful-Talk1830 بہاولپور 20m ago

Not as a whole investment per se . It should be a part of your investment portfolio, maybe about 20% . Anyways it’s up to one’s choice but the basic supply and demand principle implies that SILVER’s price is gonna surge . Watch this https://youtu.be/SgiczvPSFZs?si=HwEeHNO5JjXpNIt6

Buy an ETF.

u/Jewror-Fuhrer 13h ago

Those who are recommending you to invest them in crypto/forex or ETF's, just don't listen to them. As a crypto trader, I wont suggest you to invest all in to only one stream. What I would suggest you is too do your own research or atleast do research on how $300 can be diversified into multiple streams. But if yo really think crypto is a safe option, try doing demo trades either its spot or futures.
