Tips of good investment?

Hello guys,
I want to know the best tips for good investment, Please share your thoughts.

I was thinking about starting a lawn company with a buddy of mine, he has cut lawn for a company before for like 4 years. I have worked cutting grass for myself when i was 18, ten years ago that's about it. I'm going to buy a truck, trailer, 48 walk behind, blower, edger, whipper, and 2 small lawn mowers for us. I planned on paying company that passes flyers out door to door around here, i wanted to have around 1,000 flyers passed out. On the flyers i was gonna say mention this add and receive 5 dollars of each cut for the entire summer, that way i can under cut everyone else around there.. Does anyone have any suggestion?? Do i need more equipment?? Is 60-75 clients a good start? What are other hidden cost, gas, oil, what else??

I would like to tell you what is good investment, When you invest your money anywhere (Financial market, real estate, Commodities, etc.) and you make good profit, It is called good investment. So for becoming a good investor, you should be a good learner also, so that you can learn some trading rules, and implement those rules in your forex trading.

There are some investment tips, please see,
1. Never invest your money against the market trend, if the market trend is looking down , then never buy any currency pairs. 2. Always control your emotions during forex trading. DOn't be emotional.
3. Before initiating any trade calculate your risk and reward ratio.
4. Never love any particular currency pair.
5. A good forex investor must have patience.

I would like to suggest you that for a good investment you have to make diversified portfolio and invest your money in three part for long term, short term, and mid term, Invest your money in different three sectors, Forex market, Stock market, real estate market, then you can earn a good return.

The most basic rule to follow when making an investment is that a good investment makes you more money than you had when you started and doesn't take up more time than you're willing to put into the endeavor. Even though the initial "diving in" is intimidating, if you can use this one rule as your guidepost then you should be able to stay out of any significant problems. Be careful though and don't fall for schemes and get-rich-quick plans—that's a surefire way to land yourself in financial straits. The best way to make a good investment is to do research and start out small. Once you get some experience under your belt then you can take bigger risks and find better high-risk investments. It is a good rule of thumb to seek the advice of others more experienced when you're first beginning your investment career. If you can talk to brokers, investor friends, and anyone else who could know what they're talking about you can get good personal advice and clarify things that may be a bit unclear. A good investment doesn't have to be risky or long term or greatly lucrative—it just has to yield more money than what you started with. That could be anything and leaves the door wide open for any number of investments.

If you want to make huge profit and and don't want to take more risk then you must have patience and make diversify portfolio, so that you can trade safely in the market.

There is really no other reason to purchase them. Most likely, the return will be very low. The buyer will get his money back, absolutely. But TIPS and I Bonds are a vehicle for protecting your nest egg from the disaster of inflation. Capital preservation means you probably have 1) a very large nest egg and 2) are nearing retirement or already retired. If both of those cases are true, I can still see TIPS as a reasonable investment in 2012. Inflation might be your worst enemy, and you should design your portfolio to protect against it.
