You should do a search on past questions similiar to yours.
I would recommend that you invest through sharebuilder.com and vanguard.com. But for choosing the right investment, you should consult a certified financial planner. |

You should invest in an roth ira through a mutual fund company (vanguard is easily the best company in this field) You need to read. The intelligent investor is a good book. Start looking at stocks and understand what the number's mean. Value investing is the best way to go in my opinion (this is also the method used by Warren Buffet) P/e ratios and Return of Equity are good places to start. After you learn some things start investing its the best way to learn. Start small you will probably make a lot of mistakes your first couple of years but these are valuable learning experiences. |

One of the best is TDwaterhouse.com. They only charge $9.99/transaction, and will help you with hints on what to do, if you ask them. |

Buy and hold for minimum 5 years. Do not time the market for the following stocks.
MSFT, YHOO, EZM, GG, XOM, BAC, T, GSH
You will do just fine while you collect dividends. |

Buy shares in companies you use regularly and know are doing well. Try to choose strong companies that have low rated shares because they're out of favour. |

Start with any 401(k) plans you may have available to you...especially if they match any portion of it. That is one of the only "SURE" ways to make money immediately in investing.
If you put $100 into your 401(k)...and you are only in a 20% tax bracket...you would only see $80 less in your paycheck. However, if your employer does a .25 match on the first (fill-in-the-blank) percentage of your income, you would then have $125 in your 401(k) growing "Tax Deferred" (benefits of this can be discussed/learned later).
It is pretty easy to see how an instant 25% return on your money is a Major benefit...and you would have to lose 20% of your overall investment...just to be back to a 0% return.
Making uneducated, uninformed, and costly investments with small amounts of money is not wise. It would be best to save up a "measurable amount of money" first, become educated on what options you then have available to you with that $$$amount, and discover what type/style of investing is right for you (individually). Some people are High Risk stock trading junkies flying by the seat of their pants with very little money hoping to "hit it big"...others lean more towards the tried and true conservative strategies of diversification (spreading the money into a variety of options) and/or fixed income products that can "protect" you money (and earnings) better (but with lower returns).
For education.....visit a lot of websites...such as...
The Motley Fool (big on educating people and you can take online learning lessons for free)...www.fool.com
Yahoo Finance...read the articles, etc.
Subscribe to magazines like "Smart Money" and "Kiplinger's Personal Finance" etc.
.....and until you do these things...stick with 401(k) investing, Roth IRA's, etc. Start small, build up to the big time. Too many people in these venues wanna play the "big money" game with no money, no knowledge/education, and more ego than sense.
Good luck. And a good Financial Planner or Broker, Consultant wouldn't hurt...once you have saved up enough money that hiring one of the few honest & ethical ones makes sense. |
