Why doesnt /biz/ have a sticky/wiki? I want the the TLDR on what

Find out which stock first, if its linked too heavily with the price of oil then I'd wait till later to start fiddling around.

I wouldn't expect too much money from it - high reward always comes with high risk. As a rule of thumb you might gain a 20th of your money per year.

Stocks are great and all but for most people they'll never replace a job.

1. Read every article you can and get familiar with all the terms.

2. Watch the many, many interviews with warren Buffett available on YouTube.

3. Read books on investing, starting with "The intelligent investor" by Ben graham.

I think it's too much to expect returns of more than $100 per month if you want to play it safe. There are lots of high risk trades which rake in larger profits but without deep knowledge of the markets (which I don't have either fyi) it's little more than a gamble.

Also, what's a "Ben Franklin generation" and how does it relate to a guy on a boat?
