Read, get a mentor, read some more until you fully understand what stock investing is.

Here in PinoyMoneyTalk, we already have dozens of useful resources that can help you navigate through this risky but exciting and potentially lucrative world of investing. We’re sharing to you below some of our past guides that can give you solid foundation:
