Invest through an investment company, if you know nothing about stocks, you don't just want to jump into it. My friend's a stock broker now, there's a lot that goes into it, especially logic (the maths kind, unions, intersections and all that). But I know he has invested quite heavily in banks and that seems to have a decent return. The idea from what I gather is low risk, long term returns. It's not about the quick buck, unless you're willing to risk losing your money.

Over the past couple of years, I've been doing financial research and looking into the basics and logic of investing!

The best site that I've been on in a while is www.investopedia.com, you can go there and actually read up on alot of different things on investment.

The combination of that and Google Finance has really helped me understand alittle more about investing.

Have you invested yet? What has been the results of your investments, if so?

I'm on 401K Roth and I have another Roth from another job!
Many times I wanted to get started however school has really prevented me from saving up!

So I started working with a simulated account to monitor my progress, I've done it from investopedia before with that contest that was
ran on here years ago. But this year I'm trying to pay off the rest of my debts and start investing and whatnot! And I mean start from little!

What is Roth?

It's probably a good idea to start off with a simulated account, it's like when you first start out playing poker!

did the simulated thing with folio investing forreal back in 01 and invested in marvel before they started releasing all the movies.....wow anyway. just started again and so far well, up until last week my shit was doing alright avg...around 8-10 percent return but now that shit dropping and close to me breaking even...however I doing the dollar cost average thing and continually putting in 150-250 a week so of course my return gon vary a lot. I plan on keeping my stocks for 6 months before I do any major changes..so I can gain some useful info. the only big change was I sold my stock in reynold america..marlboro cigarettes...I dont smoke and the stock wont doing nothing special so fuck it.

Nice @ Marvel!! Very nice!! But yea same here I'm planning on dropping at least $100 a month into the investment accounts for stocks/mutual funds/bonds/ etc. Start buying multiple shares, however I'm buying and holding unless a major crash happens that I must sell back!

honestly that marvel thing was a good fluke..I didnt plan it that way .I was always a comic fan as a kid and I generally invest in things I actually support in some way or another. the movies just worked in my favor.
