You should probably start with 1-3k to get you going and to test the waters.
Just aim for the top traded companies.
I like Bank of America (BAC), Apple (APPL), Amazon (AMZN), Ford (F), Coke (K), etc..
Find a company you like, you use everyday and do some research on it to see if it's cheap enough to invest in.
Buy something cheap, hold it for awhile and hopefully profit.
I have doubled my money since I started investing in early March. |
