I have some amount of earnings apart from the ones that I save for m
necessities. I want the earnings invested in some real estate or may be i
stocks. I do have some knowledge on stocks but, earlier my cousin ha
invested in the stocks and had a set-back. I know that you need to b
updated in that but – What is a better option from the two???

Ask in a group that is investments oriented?

Right now I'd say neither. Wait a year.
If you get tax breakes on pension contributions that's not a bad place.

Real estate is way down right now and there are a lot of good deals to
be had. It will come back up. If you have time to wait it could be a
very good investment.
