I will take your advice. Of the money I will have, I will probably be investing maybe £500-£1000. It's small enough that I can risk losing half if I invest the bottom end, and just over 20% at the top end (unless I really mess up and hit a company that fails miserably), but the book I am currently studying on shares says not to go past 10% so inshaa Allah it'll be fine. I am wary and will certainly be cautious when I invest, but the book I am currently reading is by an author who has a lot of credibility behind his name and his book has got nothing but extremely positive reviews so I am keeping some hope open that this is a possible. Allahu A'lam, I look forward to giving it a shot, if it doesn't work out I will quit, I don't have suicidal tendencies to continue putting money on a failing prospect. If it works then Alhamdulillah we will see how it goes.
