I'm not going to say the usage is wrong; it's just informal compared to other choices. My suggestions in this thread won't typically refer to the colloquial use of language unless I want to directly address that. After all, this is a thread on grammar, and we have already made references to grammar nazis.
I strongly suggest avoiding this use of invest in writing other than that used in email, forums, instant messaging, text messaging, and other informal platforms.
