determine your risk tolerance, how much money u got, figure out your financial goals.

do lots of research, leave emotion out of investing .. dont rely on 'tips' .. small cap/high risk stocks have the biggest growth potential, but at the same time are volatile and you can lose your 'shirt' :chuckles:

market sucks right now.. up to u to decide if its hit the bottom or not :dunno: .. factors like the war, oil, election, corrupt ceo's, etc effect everything..

buy low, sell high :dunno:
