How to Buy a Stock (Step-By-Step Demonstration)

Investing in the stock market has historically produced healthy returns over the long-term. You will likely gain lots of exposure to the stock market in your employee retirement account, but how do you buy stocks on your own? What if there are individual companies that you'd like to invest in?

In this video, I give step-by-step instructions on how to buy stocks and get invested in publicly-traded companies that you may be researching on your own.

More specifically, I explain:

1) What you need in order to buy stocks
2) How to open and fund a brokerage account (walkthrough)
3) What are the bid/ask prices?
4) What is buying a stock on margin?
5) Buying a share of AAPL stock with a limit order.

I hope this quick video helps! Please leave a comment below this video if you have any questions.
