I talk about how to invest in the stock market with very little money. I first start explaining what all the terms mean when you look up a stock like PE Ratio, Year Low Year High, Volume etc. I explain the true price of the stock is determined not by the stock price but the PE Ratio which means price to earnings. Then I explain the investment strategy I use to minimize the risk instead of trying to buy low and and sell high which causes most investors to lose money. The strategy I use is called Dollar Cost Averaging which means you choose a stock, you pick an amount you want to invest every week or month and you invest that amount no matter what the stock price is. I explain all the benefits and downfalls to using this strategy. By sticking to these investment rules and picking winners you will be laughing all the way to the bank in no time.
