Investing money in stocks is one great way of retiring independently ( no more SS in like 20 years ) and affordable lifestyles if you make money..
stock prices goes up on Supply and Demand ..so the better profit a company has, and the more people it lays off, the more investors will smell profit, then they might buy and stock prices goes up.
yes you can also lose everything if you dont do the proper research when buying stocks (like in all investments)..so Research Research !

Pick up a copy of The Only Investment Guide You'll Ever Need by Andrew Tobias for a witty and easy-to-read primer on the basics of investing and the market. The topic is too much for this forum. How about breaking your question down into smaller chunks?

The object of the game is to buy low and sell high. The points represent dollar values for a public company's stock, which represents ownership in the company.
