Now is the time to buy stocks for long term (I mean "until retirement" long term). Day trading is risky, dangerous, and involves a lot of money to make a quick profit. Buying stocks and selling them for more comes with heavy taxes and fees. But if you feel so inclined to jump right in, there is a good and safe website to do so: www.sharebuilder.com I bought $25 in shares from 6 diff companies back in 2004. Before the market meltdown last year, it was up to $55 ... more than doubling my investment. As of today, it's at $16.

Bank of america went up 18% yesterday, which is unbelievable. the money I make in the long term (initial investment of $500) will go towards another Z

Find a professional that can help you or do the research yourself. Would you go to a gynecologist to get the pecker checked? Why go to zdriver to get a stock check?

If you're not one to constantly monitor how specific stocks are doing, I would recommend an index fund, like the Vanguard S&P 500.

Sorry but I own the Golden Gate bridge. The guy that sold it to me didn't mention that there's no place for toll booths. Not only that but it isn't even real gold. Man do I feel like a fool.
