Default Even a careful novice can make money in the market

I started investing only last year, and investing tiny amounts ($50/month or so). My return's only about 7%... not as good as Dien, but a whole lot better than the stock market itself, bank savings account, money market, etc.

I enjoy it. It's kind of a grand cosmic game of strategy (and outwitting the odds.) It does mean paying careful attention to the news and accepting that you, like Warren Buffet, will have investments that go down. The trick is knowing when to get out.
