I just started reading The Intelligient Investor. I'm 22 years old. I want to become an intelligient investor (hah). Is there a way to invest for relatively short term gains (a couple of years) to help me pay off debt?
I am already putting in 5% income into Vanguard 401k. Company matches up to 5%. After taxes/insurance/rent/food/gas, I have a little less than 2k/month to save.
A colleague suggested starting a dividend account and putting a few hundred in it a month, but I don't even know how I'd do that.
I'd like to invest about 400 a month in the market, either in a variety of stocks or funds. I know most trade websites are 5-10$/trade though, so I don't know how to do this profitably.
I don't really know what I'm doing. I'm going to read this book and study investopedia, but other than that, can someone lead me in the right direction?
