This is going to be a long post, read at your risk. There are certain rules one need to follow while investing: 1) What is the purpose of investment? 2) After what period will the money be required? 3) Is current income stable? 4) Are there any short term liabilities? After answering the above questions one need to start the investment plan. As different people will have different needs we cannot say which is the best investment option. 1) Stock Market : People who invest in stock market directly need to be aware of all activities around the market, sectors and the stock. This is becoming quit difficult as no of factors are increasing all the time. Even if you invest make sure you invest in good companies which good business. NEVER BUY STOCK CAUSE SOMEONE ELSE BOUGHT IT 2) Mutual Fund: This is the best alternative for people who want to get stock market benefit with there returns. A mutual fund is run by a fund manager who manages the fund and normally have good market knowledge. So before investing invest in funds with Good track records. SIP for a period of 3-4 years is said to be a very good investment. Also there will be no tax after one year investment. 3) FD's : This the safest investment. But it bank FD's gave -ve return in 2010 and returns have turned just +ve in 2011 as interest rates have increased in past few months. Also one need to pay tax on the interest income earned. Other alternative with a bit of risk is to invest in FD's issues buy different company's to rise the funds. Normally the fixed returns are better then bank FD's. One need to be very sure that the company which is issuing FD is a stable company and with stable growth. 4) Bullion : The asset class which has provided the maximum return on investment in last few years. There is lot of debate around the word if the same will be sustainable going forward also. There is no clear view on this till now. There is lot of speculative positions that have build in commodities around the world which many experts are calling it a bubble. Like Silver jumped to 75K and returned to 50K in 1 one week which is huge for a large traded commodity worldwide. People may argue that this can also happen in stock market but we need to understand the commodity prices are similar around the world while in stock market PE ratios are very much different. @DL send me the investment details and let me check if we can make some more loss/profit . *** Markets will be volatile till mid of August, be causes of investing and trading till then (If any of the European countries defaults then be ready for a shock).

@ Dipan Deposit your future idle funds in banks (preferably the nationalised ones ). The yield, interest here, will be significantly lower than those that you have a chance of getting from stock market but it will be solidly secure.

Here are some more hidden menus. I've used a few of them on my Fascinate and found really helpful for changing some basic settings. My phone is not a rooted one. Rooting is not essential for using these codes. I shouldn't have to say it, but I will.. I nor this forum or the op is not responsible if you brick your phone. Play with these things at your own risk. Even if I said it's been tested by me and confirmed to work. It's not my fault if your phone takes a crap on you. Make a backup of your phone. To enable Hidden menu, do the following: Go into the Dialer and enter *#83786633 then press the Home key Go back into the phone dialer and enter *#22745927 Now a box will come up asking for the SPC code. Enter 000000 Press the Hidden menu Enable radio button. Now these codes can be used. Audio Tuning *#28346# Several audio tuning menus. I've only tested the two items below: To silence boot and shutdown audio go to Situation/BOOTSOUND and turn the values to 0. I've tested and confirmed this works. To silence the volume key audio when turning the volume up/down go to Situation/VOLUMEKEY and turn the values to 0. I've tested and confirmed this works. Full Bat Popup *#3844228# This allows you to disable the full battery pop-up. I have tested this and it works successfully. HwCodec *#0002*28346# Audio path volume controls. Most importantly, it looks like there's a sidetone adjustment. I have not tested any of these items yet. Shutdown *#7594# This enables you to shut your phone off by long-pressing the power/lock key. No more pop-up confirmation. I have tested this and it works successfully. I also need to point out that this disables your slide lock screen. Diag/Testing Mode *#4636*1111# GPSSetup menu *#1472365# The settings are set to the "fixed" values by default. You can go into Command and then start GPS and force a satellite lock. There's other cool info there too. *#7594# If your enable this, it appears to not only shutdown your phone with a long press of the power key, but it also disables your lock screen (puzzle/glass screen). I found the puzzle to unlock very annoying, so I disabled it. My phone screen opens without any lock. Enter GPS debug/settings application by typing *#1472365# click "Setup" tab click "position mode" Click "starting mode Enable "Cold Start" Back out. Very useful tests for the GPS!!!
