I just got into it myself - I had wanted to try it and I studied it on my own for about 3 months, right as the market was tanking. I read up on Zecco.com (GREAT site to buy stocks and even better for 1st time buyers). I purchased a large quantity of Citigroup when the whole AIG fiasco was at it's height in the media (as AIG went down, so did the other players). I purchased it at a staggering $0.97 cents a share. It's now at $3.86 (as of 2:05 PM). I did the same thing with Ambac (I studied the dropping stocks and used a site that you can play for fun using mock-monies and see how my predicted stocks did -they did GREAT! So I funneled some money in - here's the link to the stock game site:
