Make a average investment if possible. Only a small amount of money, and do it on at least 4 things, just incase the stock fails at one or two, you still have a few to count on. That way you still win in the end.
You should use Indesign and join a business that makes magazines. It's easy to learn. You'll get a lot of money doing this. Once you learn how to use Indesign and you apply for some jobs. You may get into one and from there you'll get "Money!!!!"
I forgot to add that if you do get a 3D Animation job instead then you won't get as much money as you would be getting doing an Indesign job (most of the time.)
