my first advice is (if possible), find someone that already invests that you can go and pick their brain. whether it be an uncle or your dad or a friend or whatever.
thats why i came here lol, none of my friends that i hang out with on a regular basis play with stocks.

ive been on medical leave for going on 6 months with many more months ahead of me, so i cant ask any co workers...and even then...they're all construction type workers who are mainly weekend warriors. so ill skip asking them lol. but with all the time off i have, im forced to stay at home (not allowed out of my house without supervision) so ive got from 7-3 to basically sit around and mess around and learn and see how everything is done.

i was hoping that someone on here with a decent knowledge would be able to meet up with me possibly and just show me what they do and how things work. (yes, ill even buy you a coffee and a snack lol)

ive got a virtual stock game on my iphone, it gives you 100k to start, but im only using the ammount i actually plan on investing. but even then, the game is quite vague...watch, buy, sell, summary. it doesnt tell me how things work.

anyone up for a challenge? sit me down, show me how its done, what methods you've found works for you, what you've found to be risky actions, etc.
