I intend to invest in the stick market or an ISA.
People doing this are also doing these things:

I added this a year ago and still haven’t invested money into anything. I don’t know where to start I need help.

I’ve started to read books and have gained investment knowledgable friends. I haven’t invested yet but I have definetly started saving wish me luck!!
I got a book called “Investing for Dummies”—-I am totally lost in the investing game. I plan on reading this and hooking up with a good friend (who has invested successfully). Gotta start somewhere!
Check off list.
1. 5, 10, 15 percent interest on an investment is horrible if you have 20% interest you owe. Pay off all frivolous interest; credit cards before saving money.
2. Shop around for all expenditures, saving (here and there) gives you more to invest.
3. Pick up loose change and put into a jar, every year I get a nest egg.
4. Invest in yourself!
5. Read all you can, listen to people who are doing good investments and ask questions, and make your own sound judgments.
6. Start a CD at your bank, after you have less than 60% debt to income ration and all your accounts (checking, savings, credit cards) are in the Green, this is a “Marker” Never spend this CD just keep re-investing in it. Its a last chance buy out if anything bad ever happens.
7. A dollar a day will keep ill finances away.
8. Try to save 10% of your income every month, its harder than it sounds. (ex: $2000 a month equals $200 in savings)
9. Find free fun, (hiking, biking, reading, yoga)... Movies, video games, drinking is fine but expensive.
I finally set up 401k a couple months ago. In 2 months, I’ve got $350 in that account. Decent, but not good enough. I’ll keep working on this one.
