Before you invest in any security, the first investment you should make is in yourself, and the best investment you can make is by educating yourself.

Start your education by learning why you should invest and the importance of being able to make your own decisions or what the pro’s make theirs. Start by reading,
What Works on Wall Street by James O'Shaunessey
Beating the Street by Peter Lynch
One Up on Wall Street by Peter Lynch
The Warren Buffett Way by Robert Hagstrom
Trading For a Living by Alexander Elder
Mastering the Trade” by John Caster
How to Make Money in Stocks” by William O’Neil

Get into the habit of making daily visits to some websites like MSN Money and Yahoo Finance. (http://moneycentral.msn.com/home.asp http://finance.yahoo.com/ )
While at MSN following the strategy lab analysts to get a feel for what the pros are doing and why. This site has some basic information for beginners. If any site offers free information, take it. Other website that can provide instructions and help with procedures and terminology are
Investopedia - http://www.investopedia.com/ Stock Charts - http://stockcharts.com/
Other - http://www.investorshub.com/ http://www.1source4stocks.com/

Visit some of the more professional websites like Zacks - http://www.zacks.com/
Smart Money - http://www.smartmoney.com/ Schaeffer’s – http://www.schaeffersresearch.com/
Some of these web sites will have advertisers who are worth looking into also. And remember, if they offer free information, get it.

Attend all the free seminars you can, just be careful and don’t get pressured into anything you really don’t want or need. Most schools offer courses in finance and economics, but very few will have courses on the mechanics of the investment markets, if they do try taking the course. You may want to consider on-line courses, the New York Institute of Finance use to have such courses. Try to get some fee information from the stocks exchanges they all have (had) free booklets, SIAC and some of the regulators (FINRA SEC MSRB CBOE) may provide some free literature.

I was in your shoes about five months ago, man. That's why I created these websites:

http://www.stockmarketresources.blogspot.com
http://www.picktherightbroker.blogspot.com

They are meant to serve as the beginners' guide for education and setting up your accounts. The first site provides info on all the major aspects of investing, and the second on online brokerages. I promise they are worth your time! If you have any questions about investing, feel free to email me as well.

Read "Real Money" by Jim Cramer, then decide for yourself.

Firstly, if I can say at this point, you need to be careful of other people. There are few if any you can trust in the game, so the emphasis will be for you to 1)know what you are doing 2) have a system you feel comfortable 3) enough experience to know how to take the winners and the lossers and 4) get a very good understanding of how the market works in general. There are many ways you can invest your money, you don´t have to necessarily get into stocks and shares. But for more advanced investing, stock markets are a good place to start. The best investors website giving you lots and lots of information is www.investopedia.com though it does not discriminate for beginners so some of the terms can get you lost. Also I can recommend you find out about people who have been successful in this business. If you can find out how successful people have gone about investing, it will only help. I can recommend Warren Buffet as the first port of call. You have the right attitude, small time investments, where you won´t lose all your money in one go. Hopefully this will give you time to get more up on terminology, better equiped to face the beast we call the market. Good luck, I hope it goes well.

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread!

Be very careful here. Don't part up with any of your money - yet. You must educate yourself first and the list of books given in another answer are good.

There is another book at the site mentioned below. No. 5 on the list and it is free.

The stock market is a very interesting exciting and dangerous place. You can make money, but you MUST educate yourself first.

Best of luck.

Better open a high yield account in a bank in Eastern Europe. You will get a 12% APY with NO RISK. All deposits are insured by the government.
12% annual return is guaranteed

I have opened such a high yield account 5 years ago. Email me for more info.

Check out Daveramsey.com for the most practical personal investment information and links.

Before you invest, be sure you leave yourself an ample amount of cash for the proverbial rainy day; don't invest your entire savings in the stock market. Keep in mind that stocks are usually intended for LONG-TERM investing, so don't expect to be able to get at your invested money for at least the next five years (it needs a reasonable amount of time to grow - that's why you want to leave yourself a healthy reserve sitting "idle" in your bank account for the meantime).

Good luck. :)

The FSA www.fsa.gov.uk has a good consumer information centre and many stockbrokers including Hargreaves Lansdown www.H-L.co.uk have knowledge centres and free guides to help investors. If you are venturing onto the stockmarket for the first time take your time before you make an investment. Stockmarket investments should be for at least 5 years and you should be prepared that the value can fall as well as rise.

Most all posted is great advice.

Penny stocks are high risk and there have been a lot of scams associated with them, too. Generally not a great idea.

One thing you can do is "paper" trade. Select an amount of seed money and then fictitiously buy stocks and track them to see how you do. See if you can beat the mutual funds or indexes.

That can give you experience right away with no risk.

A number of homepages and other places allow you to input a portfolio to track, some with amounts.

CNBC is having a contest running right now that you can put in a portfolio and it is tracked. Do that while you learn. And it gives you a better idea if you want to risk your own money that way.

Wishing good profits to you.

Start by educating yourself. At this juncture you don't need individual stocks. Forget penny stocks. Go for the gold. Try the Vanguard website: http://www.vanguard.com Look at planning and education; a good beginners course. Another good source: The Bogleheads' Guide to Investing: Taylor Larimore, Mel Lindauer, Michael LeBoeuf, John C. Bogle for the beginning investor.

Spread your risk by investing in a good, low cost, no load mutual fund thereby spreading your risk across scores of stocks. If one loses for a short term, chances are the other hundred will help you along. Even better, look at their STAR fund. It is spread 65% in stocks and 35% in bonds through holdings in other Vanguard Funds diluting your risk further.

If you are making the sensible step of moving you money out of your bank good for you! Now put it to work and let it grow. Educate yourself and sometime in the future maybe you will want to invest in individual stocks.

I've made a fortune over the past 35 years in mutual funds and also in stocks. But I have the time and money and education to invest in stocks.

Slowly and surely you will get there too.
