begin by understanding yourself. set your own financial goals, assess you risks tolerance and invest in investment vehicles that suit your needs. Without these, you'll be going round the circle not sure looking for what.
once you'd decided which road to go, start learning. they are so many free resources available in the internet. if not enough, go for paid information (books, magazines etc.). once you understand the rule of the game, then only you can start action.
mutual fund might be the easiest road to take. it is a pool of money from common investors given to fund managers for them invest in stock market. you'll be charge for their service though there is no guarantee that it will be profitable.
bonds are long term debt sold to investors by companies. in return, the company will commit some interest rate (coupon) by the end of the loan term. this probably is the safest bet, but the returns is not as much as for equities market.

The stock market can be risky at the best of times, even for experienced investors.
However, everyone has to start somewhere, and if you do not start now then when will you acquire the necessary experience?
Do read some books on the subject. Visit your local book store and find a book that you like and feel comfortable with.
Some of the titles I have on my bookshelf include:
One Up on Wall Street by Peter Lynch
How to make money in Stocks by William J. O’Neil (Founder of Investor’s Business Daily)
The Millionaire Next Door by Thomas J Stanley and William D Danco
Check out web sites like fool.com and yahoo finance.
Investigate trading strategies with a proven track record over 3, 5, 10, and 15 years.
Pick something that you understand, find easy to use, will help you realise your goals, and where you can take responsibility for your investments and be in full control of your capital.
Systems like the Stocks Monthly system are definitely worth investigating once you are up to speed with the nuts and bolts of investing. |

The main concept is youve got to do your homework. The more you rely on "experts" for advice, the more risk you are actually taking. These "experts" get paid on commission, so they want you to buy and sell, buy and sell. Take the advice of Warren Buffett and choose a few companies with strong economic foundations and great products and just hold. Be greedy when others are scared, and scared when others are greedy. |

Investing in "individual" stocks takes a lot of knowledge and practice; so I would not suggest doing this until you understand completely how the stock markets work.
Vanguard.com is ideal for long term investors who want to learn about mutual funds, index funds, and exchange-traded-funds (ETFs). Trading funds is less risky than trying to trade "individual" stocks.
Unless you plan on spending everyday of your life looking at stock charts trying to determine the best time to get in and out of "individual" stocks, I would look into some sort of fund.
Also be very careful about asking for stock tips online. Most are probably worthless or contain unethical motives. Do not fall for any Pump-and-Dump scams.
As far as books go, I actually started out with the Investing for Dummies books, and they definitely pushed me in the right direction. To many other books have their own agendas in my opinion.
The websites below all contain plenty of FREE information to get you started in the right direction. |

Probably read some good investment books first and then start with mutual funds since they help you to diversify, but make sure you research on the funds and their managers. If you want to start on stocks directly, you can look at what mutual fund managers are buying also. Some resource links below. Good luck |

Learn by doing. Telephone Vanguard, invest $1000 in a tracker fund for the S&P 500 and watch it rising. |

You will need to get a basic education on stocks, bonds, and mutual funds before you venture your money into them. Any of these sources should point you in the right direction:
1) Mutual Funds for Dummies, by Eric Tyson
2) http://www.invest-for-retirement.com has a free downloadable book
3) http://www.investopedia.com has some great tutorials
4) The Boglehead's Guide to Investing
When reading about investing, pay particular attention to the subjects of asset allocation and costs. These are so important. |
