    The old fashion way works best. You’ll have to read. I suggest "One Up on Wall Street" by Peter Lynch. Its a real good book for beginners. You shouldn’t even think of options until you have many years of stock trading under your belt. Most options (up to 85%) expire worthless. They can be lucrative if you have a real good working knowledge of the market.

    My friend does a lot of day trading likes, invest tools
    Teach you the trade and how to use things like candlestick charts and ect! Great thing to have if you plan to trade stocks or currency or commodities or bonds and gold or silver etf’s and other things in the market place.

    Not sure if you have cable but a good show to watch is on MSNBC called Mad Money by Jim Cramer. He is crazy in the way he does his show but he offers allot of advice for new investors. Also I just read his book stay mad for life which gives extensive advice and explains in detail about how the market works and how your investments need to change as you get older.
