Answer 1

You buy stock or shares from some company and give it some money to invest in the business. As the business starts earning profit with your money, you have some share in the total capital of the company. The company gives you some share of profit.

You do not do anything else and you are paid the profit your money earns. Your money grows by itself and offers you profit. You must be feeling the urge to dive into this buy-sell stock business right now. But wait. As told before, it is a business the company does with your money. Businesses may end in a loss or a profit. And if the company faces a loss, it will charge a loss on your share too, resulting in a fall in your share price. Therefore, it is essential to observe caution while doing stock trading.

Answer 2

People spend their whole lives studying securities and surround themselves with very smart people and they still don't have the answer. I got a bachelor's degree in finance in 4 years, I'm becoming CFA certified, and I'm in graduate school right now setting an MBA with a finance focus. All this schooling has been studying how markets work and learning how to analyze stocks, etc. It's not a perfect science like math where you learn a formula and you get a set answer. And it takes a lot of work. If you wanna buy stock, you can buy some in something you like, like Disney; or start studying investing yourself (buy low, sell high), or ask a financial adviser for help.

So I say go for it! A share of Disney is about $32.

Plus, prices are really low right now so you potentially could make a lot of money a few years down the road...
