citygirl | Does anyone know how I learn about investing without going through a broker? |

Going through a broker is questionable way to learn about investing. Brokers want to make money off of you! I recommend Bob Brinker's website. He has a plain English tutorial, links to other web sites, a radio program, and a good reading list. Brinker makes money by selling his newsletter and his program, not off of you. I'm a lot richer for following his advice. |

I would steer clear of sources like Motley Fool and Investopedia that try to teach you how to pick stocks. It's too risky, too complicated, and not even the pros can do it consistently. Instead, check out two books: Investing For Dummies and/or Mutual Funds For Dummies, both by Eric Tyson. They have everything you need to know to get started, in plain language. |

Look up various stock brokers websites, such as natwest brokerline and barclay's stock brokers. They usually have some good write ups and show you how you can trade. |

you can go to investopedia.com, (free) for a pretty good overview on the market. Bookstore or library wouldn't be a bad place to start to learn about investing--those beginners or dummies books.
Once you are ready--you can invest directly with mutual fund comapnies--Vanguard, for example, by filling out the application and reading the prospectus of the fund(s) you are interested in. |
