Stock Investment

I sold off my apartment few months ago after keeping it for over 10 years.  The process wasn't all smooth sailing, having had a tenant from hell who refused to move out at first and threatened to harm me if I insisted and then finally ran off with months of unpaid utilities and rentals! I had to suffer episodes of mental stress and to clear his debts!  But I can see the sunlight now, the gloomy days are finally over! The legal documents had finally reached its final stage and the handover of property finally took place today. Phew!  

Now that I have quite a fair amount of proceeds from the sale of my apartment, I want to make good use of it for investment purposes.  Putting the money in a fixed deposit will not yield much interest these days.  I was thinking of investing the money in some penny stocks such as Tim sykes.  The gain from the sale does not allow me to buy and keep a lot of those expensive stocks so I think I would rather keep more units of lower price stocks.  Like the saying goes, do not put all eggs in one basket. :P
