I want to start investing small amounts of money and hopefully be able to start something big and make more money to invest.

Where and how do I start?

>> No.1781869

Well, you get a small amount of money and invest it. Then make more money and invest that too.

Hopefully this will lead to something big.

Let me know if you have any questions

I can't tell you that, you have to find your own path.

I can give you my experience doing something similar to what you described though:

Bought and sold used cars to make a few thousand dollars so I could have money to play around with. Deposited $600 or so on Poloniex and dicked around trying to gamble. Got lucky on a few and got up to $1200 pretty quickly. Got too greedy and lost $900 gambling with margin trading. Evaluated my decisions and found where I had gone wrong. Learned to not trade with emotions, learned that it's ok to sit trades out, learned to think long and hard before entering a position, learned to keep more leverage in my account.

Deposited $2,400. Now I've got ~$2,700 and I'm ready to try it for real, but disciplined. Get stuck hodling xmr long because I bought at .0145 and it went down to .0055 I think. Held on because of the discipline I had learned to take emotions out of it. Had more leverage because I learned from last time, still came closer than I'd like to my liquidation price. But it bounced back and I closed my long at .016 earning me 1.4btc.

At the same time I invested .5btc into the Iconomi ICO. That .5btc was worth around $350 when I sent it over, that got me 2,200 ICN which are now worth around $1,100. I continued to invest in ICN and I now have 5,500 with a break even price of $0.23 so I'm doing well on that investment.

During all this I also invested $100 to mine Pascal Coin on Vultr because /biz/ said to. Forgot about the coins, saw polo was adding Pascal, loaded up my old pascal app and found the coins. I deposited and made $2,800 from $100 investment.


So in total I've made ~$4,800 profit with about $3,100 investment over a period of 6 months.

Well I would start here. /biz/ get's a bad rep but there is some bona fide good advice on here. There is also terrible advice so get good at researching things suggested on here and making your own decisions.

As far as specific sites, it would help to know your background and interests. Are you looking for better understanding of a specific topic? Or just better understanding of general business and finance?

That would be good, I am looking for a site that I can buy the stocks from.
