Question by kaligirl…xxx: how do learn about investing in the stock market?
I have been interested in investing a little bit of money in the stockmarket with low risk to begin with until i become comfortable. Is there a site i can go to or any references i can refer to before i begin this. I would like to know as much as possible before i jump in not knowing what the heck I’m doing. Any advise is appreciated.

Start by reading “Investing For Dummies” – a great starter book. When you are ready, I’d recommend ETFs at first.

    Start by asking people you are experienced and then you will have to work on it everyday in order to keep learning and stay up with the type of stocks that you are interested in investing in. It is a continual learning process in order to understand all the nooks and crannies that are part and parcel of the system….someone suggested Investment for Dummies…if they have a book such as that, it will give you a birdeye view of what you need to be learning to start off with.

    Consider an investment club. They are a great way to learn and over the long haul, they usually do pretty well in terms of return on money.

    Here are a couple of references.
