you should start by getting some stock in your local power company directly at their offices, every quarter add some more and use dividend re-investment...
then? when they send you your statement... learn how to read them: quarterly and annual statements, . in 30 years? you'll be glad you did..
spend a whole year studying how to trade and understand 10Q's and 10K's.... if you wanna just trade pinkies and OTCB's (as opposed to investing)? then you need to study charting...
