Which brokerage do you use? I started with Scottrade when I was in college because they were the only brokerage that would let me put in $500 to start.

I tend to invest in ETFs rather than individual stocks. An ETF is basically a mutual fund, but traded on the exchange. I put money in consistently and try not to worry about market fluctuations.

I think education is the most important part of learning how to invest and trade. These markets take out the experts, what makes you think as a beginner you have what it takes to survive?

I would second the comment above about the Motley Fool. There is a huge amount of good education about stocks and investing at that site. Good Luck!

I won’t be able to invest in the stock market for a while – too much stress. I wouldn’t be able to sleep!
