oSiK asked:


I have always been interested in the stock market and how it works, and I believe that I am not old enough and mature enough to invest. I have had a $8 an hour job for about a year now, so i have a good amount of money to start with. But where should I start? How much money should I put at risk for my first time? Where can I find a good source to learn even more about investing? Thanks in advance.

Kim
