Before anyone could answer the question, you have to define what kind of investing do you want to do. Stocks, bonds, mutual funds, long term, short term, having a strategy; what strategy, full service broker, or online broker? Buy a book, it will be better than a web site. Investing for Dummies, What works on Wallstreet, or Wallstreet money machine.
