1. Wait for a year in the mean time read www.investopedia.com You need a brokers acount to buy stock. Educate yourself first OR you WILL loose all your money.
2. You need to open a trading account with a broker to buy shares. Eg: http://www.scottrade.com
3. My answer is try investing in pork rinds although it is not healthy neither would I eat swine.I believe farmers are doing quite well in their own personal business.You probably pay a farm tax but I am not sure about the animal tax or limit.
4. Here is a company that offers free stock and more for a little time invested. http://www.me2everyone.com/57603 You'll have to decide for yourself if this is for you.
5. There are many ways. You can walk into a brokerage and buy one under a street name( brokerage name) or you can have the certificate issued, and keep it in a safe place. You can open an online account, what most do, and trade stocks from your home in your pajamas. Basically, you buy them when the prices are low, and you sell them when the prices are high. Many companies offer a dividend and will send you a check each quarter, if you've issued the certificate, or will credit into your account if you've an online account.
