Agree with the index funds....only 20% of professionals beat the S&P, BUT wait until the next crash - stocks are at least 50% overvalued now relative to the underlying economy.Picking individual stocks is almost like gambling unless your warren Buffett. Instead, open up an account at vanguard to purchase index mutual funds. You can literally buy a piece of the entire stock market with one fund and just buy as much as you want as you go. The account is free, buying and selling is free, it's easy.
When it comes to investing, always go simple and easy. Statistically, you will come out ahead over time by buying the market rather than timing the market.
