Depends on what you'd like to learn.

A good primer is How to Make Money in Stocks by William O'Neil.

Another good one is one of Jim Cramer's books.

But books will only get you so far. At some point, you'll also want to get at least a little training.

For free, you can start by visiting thestreet.com. That'll get you a pretty good primer so at least you'll understand what the markets are and what a stock is, etc. If you get a chance, watch Mad Money on CNBC. Don't trade any of his picks. Just use the show to get you to understand some basics and get a feel for the market itself.

Once you understand stocks, go to 88options.com. It's a website that'll help you understand options (what they do, how they work, etc). You don't need to trade them, but the more you know, the more you'll see how options can really be the safest way to invest (once you're educated).

Next, subscribe to something like investorsbusiness daily or something like that that can help you identify good stocks.

As you get more advanced, you might want a technical analysis book like Murphy's Visual Investor or A Technical Analysis Course by Meyer.

If it's discipline, probably Trading in the Zone by Mark Douglas or Mastering the Trade John Carter

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Hope this helps!
