| Open up something with rl Hargreaves Lansdownrl, I don't personally think there's a better alternative for what you want to do. And not that I hope it will happen again, but I was able to sell stuff without any bother twice now as markets started to plunge, whereas I heard some real horror stories of people with other dealers who couldn't get rid, or couldn't get through.
One example of what they do is a Fund and Share account, a share deal can be as low as £5.95 and fund deals are free, and apart from that they get discounts on a lot of funds due to their size. I've had some great fun with their Vantage Stocks and Shares ISA, and made some very decent gains, for example I made over 70% on a Chinese fund in less than 3 months. Also you can deal on web, post, phone, or smartphone app.
I would say the advice about not bothering unless you have serious money to invest is frankly just patronising rubbish. You only need to really understand that prices can and do go down as well as up but I would think you already get that.

Why, the profit forecast is for £320 million, (down from £360 million). so hardly on their uppers.

and the component parts of the group are attractive in their own right, if they hive off the loss making French bit then they could see £1.20 a share by this time next year.
The big risk is the coming Ski season, so far it's not looking good weather wise (or should I say the weather is looking too good), it's certainly one of the less risky investments I've been looking at in recent weeks.

| It had also merged its high street travel business with the Co-operative Travel - and there were reports at the weekend that the company plans to shut 200 shops, putting 1,000 jobs at risk.
Adding to the dismal year, Thomas Cook is expected to report a 31% slide in underlying profits to £191.1m.

| If you are looking at investing in shares you must think long term, some companies have some great shareprices for trade at the moment, LTSB for example at 22.86p from £11.52 odd 4 years ago.
The way to look at it is if you have money you can afford to lose and don't mind waiting 10-15 years for a return I would suggest banks being a great option.
The are few short term wins presently, unless you get wind of something special about to happen to a company, lots of share prices are moving up and down a few pence presently on a downward trend.
remember, only throw in what you could afford to throw away and do it long term.

already have LTSB and Barclays shares for longer term investment, likewise BP, M&S, all bought at roughly the "bottom" of their respective markets,every penny I invest in shares is seen as "gone" from the moment I invest it, means I am rarely that disappointed with things. The only real cast iron investment I have is my premium bonds, and I can safely say that it doesn't matter if you've got small amounts or your full allocation, the £1m prize is as elusive as bigfoot!

| I don't think Thomas Cook is an exapmle of a long-term investment.

I don't see where anyone has suggested it is.
