i'm about to finish my first semester of college. things are going smoothly so far.
i get student loans and i get about $2,500 each semester that is extra. i've gotten one installment and it's sitting in my savings account. i get another $2,500 in january.
i guess the money is for me to live on and such...but i have a well-paying part-time job that pays for my living expenses and everythign else. i don't get to save much from the job, but the loan money is still there untouched.
i'd love to invest this money in a safe, secure way, for perhaps 4-6 years, and get something out of it. i know very little about investing of any kind.
any suggestions? i'd be looking to invest about $5k in q1 of 2010.
