is $8,000.00 liquid assets enough for a $5,000.00 a month income?

No. When it comes to money, there is never enough.\n\nRemember, whichever way the economy goes, the best possession to have is a loaded FDIC bank account. Plasma TVs and loud stereos don't hold a candle to savings accounts when the electric bill gets turned off.\n\nAlways save a percentage of your earnings for you and your future. And invest a portion into income generators (real estate, stocks, or your own business.) Good luck and may you prosper.

I have never worked with this company before, but I take it you're looking to earn some fast cash.\nI've started a great business earning over $2000 per month, part time.  Depends on your interests...\n\nhttp://www.loveofjewels.com

None.  Use a debit card, save money, invest.

Well, if you already have an account set-up with a brokerage house you should have access to research functions.  If not, then the first thing to do would be to set-up an account (I would suggest sharebuilder.com myself).  You might need to define short term.  It would also help if the dollar amount available is known.  I'm a big fan of treasurydirect.gov.  That site allows you to purchase government backed securities (t-bills) that are short term (4 weeks, 13 weeks, 26 weeks).  The interest rate is 5% and the money is state tax free so that's the equivalent of earning 7-8% in a taxable account.  As far as specific stocks go, I would be very wary of taking anyone's word on "hot" stocks.  So please be careful.  This is just a broad brush stroke answer.  I work in the industry (though not at sharebuilder) so if you'd like more details or have additional questions feel free to drop me a line.  Good luck!

Whatever you can afford.  The best way to get started is to figure out how much extra money that you have at the end of the month.  Make sure that it is money that you plan on investing for the long term.  You don't have to invest a big lump sum.  \n\nThe best strategy for a beginner is to systematically, dollar cost average into a low cost mutual fund.  Find yourself a good no load, index or growth fund and set up an account to automatically take a fixed amount from your bank account every month.  When the market is low, you are buying more shares and when the market is high, you are buying less shares.  You will find that you won't miss the money and in a short period of time you will discover the power of dollar cost averaging combined with the compounding of money.  Good luck!!

I would say no. Filing bankruptcy should be an absolute last resort. It ruins your credit for a long time.\n\n$8,000 is really not that much money. Why can't you do something to earn extra money to pay it off? A second job? Babysitting? Something like that.

There aren't a lot of quality stocks under $5, but I'll see what I can find for you.  My advice, though, is to broaden your limits a little.  If you're willing to pay up to $8 or $9, you'll find a much larger universe of quality growing companies.  Most of what you find under $5 is garbage, with a few good possibilities in the mix.

With 1.5 million invested you should be able to get 6% without a sweat if you have half way decent financial advisor. \n\nThat's 90k in income.  If you have no mortgage I dont see why you can not retire with 90k - taxes.\n\nOf course it depends on what type of lifestyle you are accustomed to and if you are willing to lower your standards while in retirement?\n\nAlso keep in mind that when you reach 67 you'll also be getting money from Social Security so that will hopefully boost your income at that time but does not help now.\n\nI would not recommend touching the principal but rather living off the interest off the money so when you pass away you'll have something for your heirs or charity whatever the case may be.\n\nUltimately only you can decide what type of life to live after retirement.  If you can live with a before tax income of 100k or so you are good to go.  Also remember income from investing are not taxed for social security so you only have federal and state tax to worry about.  Move to a state that has no state income tax and you save 5k right off the bat.

Well if you get 5% intrest monthly but 10% yearly if it's a compound deal go for the monthly. If it's just simple it's up to you. (I'd still go monthly if it was me)

I sure can.  It is neat to find someone who is looking for practice--I really appreciate that.\n\nSo if I have $20,000 invested for 3 years at 5.5% (compounded annually), how much interest do I earn?\n\nHow about if I have $7,500 invested for 12.5 years at 3.75% compounded annually?\n\nAnd finally, what if I have $12,000 invested for 5 years at 4.8% compounded monthly?\n\nHere are the answers you should get (all rounded to the nearest cent):\n$3,484.83\n$4,382.63\n$3,247.69

I've heard anything over 500.00 in yearly income counts.  Dont know for sure, as it depends on laws in your area.

Define your net worth before you define what you want.  Certain things are needed (rent; food; gas; insurance (auto/home/healthcare).  Any financial affidavit will help you to define your expenses and you will MOST certainly be able to decide what to cut out of your budget.  Keep in mind when filling it out that your monthly expenses should be multiplied by 12 and THEN devided by 52.  What you spend a week will shock you!  Once you've figured that out - link up your checking account to ING Direct to start saving - even if it's only 25/pay period (have it direct deposited) current interest rate is 3.75% (can't beat it!)  Good luck...\n\nPS - Out of work since 10/05 (NO money coming in - not even unemployment (not eligible) single mom of 3 (1-college 2-daycare) (no child support - yet) and if I can do it - you most certainly can!)
