Answer 1

you'll need a brokerage,,,,fidelity is my preference..then do some homework. why are you investing, how much can you invest, and how much risk can you tolerate......educate yourself before making decisions, or you'll end up paying for services or products you may not want or need

Answer 2

Here's a link on stock options online trading, but it many ways the same knowledege could also apply for stocks:

While sometimes it is good to get your feet week, make sure that you educate yourself enough to know what you are into. Know some basic difference between Fundamental Analysis and Technical Analysis, and in my humble opinion, the two most important aspects of investing which is risk management and money / capital management.

Good luck and enjoy the journey of self-discovery.

Answer 3

Open an account at a stockbroker. Transmit money into your account, then you can make trades either by phone or online depending on the broker.

Answer 4

Firstly you should read few books about stock/currency trading;

Secondly you should practice on demo account;

Then you should contact a brokerage company and open trading account - deposit funds - trade

NOTE: It's high risk business

Good luck!

Answer 5

1) TradeKing ($4.95)
2) Some companies sell their stock (Contact their Investor Relations Department)
3) Get a second job, get rid of every bulb (If they are over 20W) and get newer ones (Less than 10W), pay off all your credit cards, get rid of your cable and switch to satellite (It's cheaper), get rid of your telephone company and switch to VOIP It's cheaper), buy some solar panels (They cost just a few hundreds of dollars and you will reduce your electric bills every month until you die, the money you save use it to buy more solar panels until you get rid of your electric bill)

Buy a Volkswagen with a Diesel Engine and use biodiesel (A lot cheaper than $2.00 USD gasoline)
