Hello,

I just wondering how you guys were first introduced to investing and how old you were? Did you have someone to walk you through it? Did your parents invest?

Another interesting thing to know is what was the first stock that you ever bought into, and how did it do?

Personally I've never actually invested in the stock market with real money. I'm very new investing also, and this is one of the places I intend to learn with. Smile

I had an older brother who gave me 1000 in an IRA when I was 18 and set me up with a trading account at TD waterhouse.

I had a lot of fun with it and make some good money on eFTD.

From there my love affair and addiction grew. Wink

I haven't really invested at all. The only investing i do is einvesting. I was introduced to it by a few buddies of mine and quickly jumped headfirst (and ignorantly) into the finance world. Considering I was -5.76% as a return when i first started last week, my current return of -1.04% isn't bad at all. I am learning much and am considering investing as a secondary source of income as i get older.

I have always been interested in investing and have been a partner of an active trading team for the past 1 year and Einvesting has been a great place to be.

Although I haven`t been really into trading with E$.

Happy trading all I know its late but its never too late for anything. Very Happy Cool
