I am in identical shoes with you. One year out of college, with only 401k and savings holding all of my earnings outside of expenses. I will be paying attention to your threads

Gotta start somewhere, right? I just don't understand the consensus advocating against investing in a few individual established stocks I feel are strong enough to at the very least sustain their value and hopefully steadily grow. In addition to throwing some dollars at some prospective stocks with large growth potential (medical marijuana for example). Diversity is key, but investing in stocks should be "fun" as well of course while being aware of your tolerance for loss.
