High Risk, Moderate Risk and Low Risk Investments(3)

Moderate Risk Investments

Moderate risk investments are perfect for those that are interested in investing for the long term and would like to earn moderate yields.

Moderate risk investments are usually certain kinds of stocks, bonds and mutual funds that pay handsomely over the long term.

While generally riskier than saving money in a bank, for those that are looking to invest for the long term, historically speaking you will grow your money quite nicely.

Moderate risk investments usually use the power of compound interest and time to create a nest egg from 10 to 40 years with regular savings.

For instance, saving 1K per year at an interest rate of 10% for 30 years can return close to 200K.

Moderate risk investments usually return yields of 5% to 12%.
