My First Month Investing in the Stock Market!
Before I begin, like everyone that writes about investing I should cover myself with a disclaimer. So here it is: The Stock Market is not for the fainthearted.

Always use a reputable trading company and never deposit any money without reading all the terms and conditions. And finally: Never (EVER!) play around with your trading account while drinking alcohol and watching The Wolf Of Wall Street!
