When you are first getting started with investing you need to find some source of practical advice that you can at least count on with some reliability. Going online and searching for investing is going to bring up thousands of hits, most of which give the same advice over and over again or just give bad advice.
One book that sticks out from the rest is The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham.
This book is not perfect, and at times I feel it reads like a Vanguard commercial, but it is the best book out there I think for someone that is just starting out. Even if you have been investing and/or trading for a while, if you have not looked at this book I really think it's worth a read.
I could write a lot about this book as it gives so much useful information. Sadly I have found that most people on the internet which praise this book rarely follow it's advice. As with anything read it critically, and then make your own decisions after reading it.
