Seeing as I'm a broke college student,


Take some classes?

I did a lot of reading, sites like Kiplinger and the Motley Fool. I'd also strongly recommend, once you do start earning, that you invest at least half in mutual funds (I'm in Vanguard), and play/learn about investing in individual stocks and other products with the rest. That way, while you're learning the hard way, you're also putting something away for the future.....

I'm probably on the 6 year plan in school now, so i guess taking a few more classes can't hurt
Thanks for the advice. I'll start looking into those sites.

I'm in the same boat as you. For starters on technical analysis, stockcharts.com has an online chart "school" that seems to cover some of the basics pretty well.


Thanks for that recommendation. That site has been very helpful
