Where to invest my money?

Where to invest my money was still a question that had not been answered. I decided to explore other options and began to look at the internet as a source for information and investment alternatives. I decided the easiest way to begin my search was to type the words, "in 2008 invest where" into my favorite search engine. This, of course, brought up thousands of matches and ultimately ideas. Many of the ideas were of the mundane sort that has already been discussed in this article - real estate, stocks, and bonds. There were also many that did not come up in the original thought process. Among the more interesting was the idea to invest in a franchise.
