I'd do some serious reading. If it was that simple everyone would be doing it. If you don't study and learn, you will simply be gambling. |

the simple answer is to buy quality stocks, diversified over many different industries, and hold them, for a long time. add to your holdings every time you have money available. reinvest dividends. and as time goes by, sell the underperforming stocks and buy new ones.
to answer this question in detail would take a post as long as a book. the best advice that i can give you is, read investing books, andrew tobias is a good author, to learn how the markets work. get a subscription to the wall street journal, read it and learn what all of the symbols and numbers mean. in short, educate yourself.
when you get some money, call up a broker and start an account. the broker will advise you and answer questions to help you get started. if he is doing his job, he SHOULD help you from making mistakes at the beginning.
making a lot of money in this way can take years, decades. be patient. it takes years or decades to just learn how to make all of your own decisions in investing. so if you are looking for a get rich quick situation, go to the casino.
i think that you are making a wise decision to start investing. just get started, and good luck. |

People who make millions have invested large amounts of money over a long period of time.
To get started, you could research, take classes, or speak with a financial advisor (I recommend the third option). |

The best place in the UK I've found to start off investing is via the Halifax and their Sharebuilder scheme - http://www.halifax.co.uk/sharebuilder (franchised from Sharebuilder.com in the US).
To make LOTS of money, it appears you need to pick your shares carefully (I find http://quote.fool.co.uk the best place to research UK shares) and put a large amount in......... and keep it on the stock for a number of months, or even years.
One thing to remember is that each time you buy or sell a share, you pay the company you're purchasing it through a commission fee...... and the more of these you pay, the more it eats into any profit you make.
It's usually best to avoid tips from Newspapers + friends, as their usually either wrong or outdated........ at best merely use them as suggestion to add to your research list, rather than a cue to slap a few quid on it right there and then.
I've found http://www.fool.co.uk + http://everyinvestor.co.uk two good websites to learn more about the stockmarket + http://www.fool.com (the US version) to learn a bit more about working the stockmarket...... and had a few successful tips from Everyinvestor.co.uk that (at least briefly) hit over 100% profit in a year (pity I only stuck fiver on them).
Before spending any real money, it's usually best to get a bit of practise in with pretend money at an online fantasy stockmarket game, such as the one at http://www.bullbearings.co.uk first, since you're almost certainly guaranteed to lose more money than you first start out on the stockmarket, and still learning the ropes. |

if somebody really and honestly can advise you this one, I doubt it very much that he/she is willing to get just 2 points.
It is absurd to get 2 points for a secret that is valued at $1,000,000 - come on, be realistic |

I agree with many of the above, e.g. using www.fool.co.uk and other public websites/info. Make sure you know how much you can afford to lose if things go wrong. Invest regularly and for a long time. Watch how much brokers charge. www.moneysavingsexpert.com seems to be a good info site.
You should be able to get your info from the public arena - I'd be wary of anyone suggesting you go into "off-site" discussions. |

Ignore newspaper tips - immediately on publication the price rises.
Do careful research and back YOUR own judgement. Then have patience. In any normal situation it will take years for the investment to rise to the dizzy heights you wish to achieve.
Good luck. |

You need to study what the best traders are buying and selling. You can find this information at http://www.top10traders.com - this is a free site that lets you create a portfolio of stocks with $100,000 in "play" money. Each day the site ranks the best performing portfolios, so you can see how your picks perform compared to other investors. You can read posts on investing from the best traders, as well as share your own investing ideas. There is a charting feature, so you can see how your portfolio performs compared to the S&P 500. Also, you can create your own "group" so that you can see how you are doing compared to your friends.
Here are this month's best traders:
