Log on to E-trade ( or someone similar) and see if you can open a $ 500. account......then do just a little reading on ETF's ( very similar to funds...cheaper " buy-in", but a charge for each trade....you're not going to trade often, so don't let it bother you) If you consider this route, look at MXE ( Mexican cef, possible quick, large returns...but " risky") or EWA ( Australia)...slower growth but more " solid"...feeding off the growth of China...selling them metals and materials. Just a couple of thoughts....talk 'em over with someone, or just read any info you can.

Then, from there, they have some mutual funds ranging from conservative to risky, and you can diversify. I use it for my ira and my own small mutual funds.
