I will have roughly 2,000 dollars to invest in stocks, mutual funds and other investments. I&#39;m having a hard time deciding what to invest in first, due to the world wide collapsing markets being so fragile right now. I know there are very good opportunities despite what is going on in the financial markets but I&#39;m having a hard time deciding if I should invest in a high yield dividend first or be safe and invest in something like gold or silver since the dollar here in the U.S. seems to be loosing more and more value due more printing of money. Gold seems to be going up and rumor has it that by the end of 2012 early 2013 gold will hit 2,000-3,000 per ounce....I&#39;m open to suggestions.
