if he pays me in the next two days (like his note says) ill post here. if not ill post here and leave negative feedback after 7 days.

10% bitcoin
40% LTC
25% quark
10% wdc
15% cgb

Also namecoin and PPC could well be worth a punt. DCG seems undervalued but where did the dev go?

If you feel like you want to do some speculation and even some day trading go for litecoin.
If you are in for the long run go for bitcoin.

Generally: Don't base your investment options on on what people tell you here.

I would advice you to buy bitcoins. If you want to invest in alternative coins later on you should do your own research. 

Net fiat of litecoin will always be relevant to bitcoin imo, so I would just go for bitcoin

bitcoin is furthest along to general acceptance but it already has quite a steep price to get in.
if you think, as i do, that ltc will have a role next to BTC or will even overtake it based on tech go for ltc!

Hi

Localbitcoins are good if you need to buy/sell quickly as you can transact directly peer to peer without having to wait for long bank SEPA transfer times. That said you will pay a bit more on localbitcoins than you would on a proper exchange.

You can transfer coins from any wallet to any other and you will have a wallet automatically setup for you on your exchange/localbitcoin accounts.

I use multi bit as a desktop wallet and transfer from it and to it using localbitcoins or any other exchange that I have a wallet with.

You should never leave coins on a website online wallet, be it localbitcoins or any other, you should transfer them directly to your desktop wallet ASAP IMO !!

Hope that helps.

I'm not a pro so please use your best judgement. I have 3 top exchanges on my list.

Itbit is my top choice but it's a shame they do not allow US traders. I like Itbit because it's based out of Singapore. Singapore is one of the most strict and safest countries in the world.

Coinbase is second because I think they are doing there best to prove to the world that there is a happy medium between centralized structured institutions and dark shady ally deals. At the moment it seems like they have government approval.

BtcChina was and still on my list. I like China because they have the volume and a distinguished grey market. Because everything is still new and the ongoing issues with Chinese money. I would trade here unless you are a Chinese Nationalist.

All of the other exchanges have to many red flags for me. If I must, I will do local trades within my community in person.

This is my opinion on the subject. I'm not some millionaire philanthropist so please use your best judgement in this matter. Remember that volatility risk and any/all the other risks when investing. Good luck.

This is how I would do it:

1. Buy Bitcoins at https://coinbase.com/ (takes 4-5 business days and goes by the market rate of when the check clears.. uses echeck)
2. Send Bitcoins to your https://btc-e.com/ account
3. Trade for Litecoins
4. Send to cold storage (https://liteaddress.org/ or a physical litecoin https://www.cryptovest.com)

Don't store coins on the exchange. If you don't want to use cold sotrage, store them on your computer and make sure your wallet is backed up and encrypted & your anti virus updated.
