The first thing - in my opinion - would be to make sure that I have EXTRA money that I can invest without having a heart attack if the investment turns into a loss   !!  For example, I may invest upto40% (max) of the extra money that I have.  

 

However, I prefer to make such investment in several things ... applying the wisdom not to put all eggs in one basket !!

i believe return on investment.if you invest you need to know forcasted return.

some investment have high return and high risk ratio and vise versa.
