I am 18 years old. I was lucky enough to find myself in a great career at a young age so I have an OK sized chunk of money to play with investing. Well I guess "play with" doesn't seem as serious as i actually am. I'm open to investing up to $20,000 in stock. I obviously want to start small right now around $250-2,500 and get a feel for how this works. Currently using Ameritrade.

What's worth investing in? Low, medium, and high risk. I would like to have stock in each of the categories... Bitcoin just recently spiked a CRAZY amount this week. Starting to plummet... should I take advantage of it while it's plummeting or has it already reached its peak and is now dying out... Cryptocurrnecy seems like the current trend. What else is out there?

I understand that the forum is dead, but rules is still rules.

Also, coming to XT for financial advise, lolz.
