I think the general rule if you are new is to really only invest money that you can spare. You could lose it all, so only spend money that you don't need right now or in the next couple of months. That's how I'm doing it currently anyways.
Bought some Nvidia stock during the summer before the 1080s hit the market, still holding on to them, had some phat profits. Unfortunately only bought 5 shares back then, being new to the stock market and all.
Need to diversify my portfolio though, currently only invested in tech companies (Google, Nvidia, Intel, Microsoft). And I want to do longterm investments, no daytrading for me. Only trying to have some steady profit to counteract the terrible interest rates the banks pay. So I'm always happy about some advice from you gentlemen
One thing that's really helped me in the last few years is to realize that playing individual stocks is always sub-optimal, and that most of us should probably be in a broad index fund which owns every single stock (the stock market).
