You're right of course - I know there are no guaranteed ways to double your money.
Have been considering stocks - its definitely a real option. Or possibly investing into a managed fund. I did play with the stock market a few years earlier and did have a nice return on it.
But was thinking about possibly more creative/risky ways to try. Stocks are fine - my only problem with that was - it takes time/research to do properly (if I'm doing it blindly its a bit like Vegas then). And obviously 8% on a 30k is not as profitable as spending my time doing more freelancing.
So if I'm spending that time - I was thinking I need higher returns. I've also been looking into FOREX for a while, but I have mixed feelings if any amount of research/time could predict the volatile jumps over there :)
