I am a student but I'm eager and keen to know more about stock market,shares,unit trust,and investment.The truth is I don't know anything about the terms I mentioned earlier.I have heard of many people making money through investment and properties.Ofcourse there are some who lose money as well.I would like to be a part of it although I know there's risk but I think there's nothing wrong with trying.How should I start?I have a small capital in my savings account.I can take out some and start investing.Please guide me if you're an investor.

Hi,
You should do your research and know about investments before starting out. It is good to do some investments as it is when we can multiply our money. However, you should start with less risky investments. There is a website that provide $5 for free for you to trade forex when you sign up. You can get the website link at the first banner on my profile.

I'm not an investor - I do have investments in stocks and bonds. Most of which I got from an old job - so I rolled it over when I got a different job - so it's not an IRA.
Before you start thinking about "investing" your savings - don't just jump-in cold! Do your research on what those terms really mean. Take a class on investing (since you're student) - then go from there. The money will start rolling in at a much steadier pace if you actually know what you're doing. Heck - those who lose in the stock market actually know what they're doing.
Research and educate yourself first - knowledge should be at the forefront of your investment. Think of it as investing in yourself!
Good luck!
