How Do you get started in investing?

Question

I know nothing about investing, but I am tired of being poor. I don't even know the basics. I don't know what is to buy high or sell low or whatever it is. Where can I find a professional to teach me or is there a way to teach myself? Thanks

Answer 1

There are plenty of online tutorials out there - MSN, MORNINGSTAR, CNNMONEY, etc.  Just do a little digging on their sites.  

Otherwise go to the library or book store - the business/finance section.  They have books on stocks, bonds, mutual funds, asset allocation, and so on.  Try Investing for Dummies by Eric Tyson (I have this).

Answer 2

If you are new to the stock market, some research is necessary to be done on your part.
