Re: Can anyone tell me how to invest in stocks and shares?You can buy shares through online stockbrokers. These offer execution only and as such they are often the cheapest option.
Shares are comparably quite risky things to get involved in . I wouldn't suggest getting involved until you know what you are doing as there is a significant chance of you losing a considerable portion of your original investment.
