The Big Lie Told To Young Investors

My Seeking Alpha http://seekingalpha.com/author/alex-pitti My Twitter https://twitter.com/stockmanalexp Investors are told when they are first starting out to buy story stocks. It is not good advice. New investors should buy consistent companies like Reynolds American instead of risky stocks like Yelp.

2. So I have been trying to find like minded people to push me in the right direction on how to invest. I'm am a Newby and not afraid to admit it. Where is a good place to start? And how much should I buy? can you help?
3. Thanks Alex.  That was a thought provoking commentary.  I've changed my thinking on the issue to align with yours.
4. I love investing.
