(i'm broke, what is the absolute minimum i should start investing with) (assuming i have a fair ammount of knowledge about what i'm doing) as far as the series 7, i thought you had to be employed by a brokerage firm to train for it and take it. please explain how i can take that course as an individual investor. |

Re: becoming a market wizard

gaining the knowledge for the future when you actually gain employment with a brokerage firm knowledge is power cash is king too broke to stay out of the mkts then you should start like a high rate saving a/c a HRS a/c is a good start I think |
