Talk to an investment representative or financial planner.

Spend less than you make. Living even right at your means can
cause you to never have savings for an emergency or retirement. 
It means
never having a down payment for your next home or paying cash for your
car. Get used to living beneath your means and living without debt will
become easy.

This should only be given to someone whom you trust to make decisions in your best interest.
