If you would like to get into the world of investing but have limited funds or limited knowledge of what it takes to make successful trades, then maybe the best thing that you could do is to start an investment club. An investment club is a perfect way to begin trading on the stock market and limit your risk at the same time.
When you begin an investment club, you will share the risk with all of the members instead of bearing all the risk yourself. This means also that you will have to put less cash up front, so that if the club makes a bad trade, then you do not lose as much cash as you would if you were investing on your own.
One of the first steps to creating an investment club is to find people who would be interested in joining. You should start by asking your friends and family members if they would be interested in joining your investment club. Before you begin however, be sure you pick your fellow investors wisely, and only ask those whom you can trust and get along with readily. Your ideal candidates will be people who are interested in watching the stock market and have a little bit of cash they can out into the club on a monthly basis.
After you...
