I have 3-5k to spend and i am willing to put in $500 a month into a website. Do you think this is the best use of my money? I might also be looking for someone to help me pick out a website and maybe even run it and would be willing to pay. Any help and tips would be appreciated thanks!

If your budget is $5k, I wouldn't advise spending more than $1-2k on a site. That way you can buy 3 and hedge your risk. What sort of sites are you looking for? I would look for Adsense sites that are ranking on page 2/late page 1 and can easily be increased higher up the rankings to boost earnings.

You should be able to pick up a website making 300 a month for 3000. Generally a site is worth 10 times monthly revenue. This assumes that there is no particular value in the name itself.
We really need more information to help you better. You can pm me if you wish. Basically you need to decide what path you want to take.
How involved do you want to be?
Do you want an online property that brings you 1000 a month but is hands off for you?
Is the 1000 a minimum, or your goal?
Do you want to sell retail products, sell digital products, sell services, do CPA, make an adsense site, blog, promote local businesses, form a community site, or membership site.
A thousand a month in a year should be attainable in almost any one of these methods, except maybe adsense, you might need 500 or so content pages on an authority site for that much a month. I am getting about $100 per month per 40 pages of conent.
You should PM Meathead1234 and ask for his advice. It may be he has a property like you are looking for, and having him in your corner when buying a domain would be like having Bruce Lee as your bodyguard in a fistfight. I am sure he will see that you find what you are looking for, and you do not have to doubt his advice. It may be that you are not quite spending in his league, but it will be worth asking him.

You should listen to any advice Meathead gives away, he's the man you want to get to know if you are buying or selling a website.
thanks sldebo. i cant pm you because i dont have enough posts yet. I wouldnt mind working on the website for a few hours a week. what type of site could i expand the most? i want a site i can keep for a while and work on and improve and learn from. I can put up to $500 a month into the site and i have a 1 year goal of the site making $1000 a month and a 2-3 year goal of improving the site to around 3k a month. is this possible? what type of site would be best for these goals?
