Some foreign companies have their stocks listed on US stock exchanges. These stocks are classified under "ADR's" or American Depository Receipts. Or you can buy mutual funds that hold a portfolio of stocks. Also some brokers allow you the flexibility of buying foreign stocks which are specified with a ticker symbol. Figure out what you want to invest in, then go from there.

If you want to save some real money, contact the Investors page of every company you are interested in investing.  Many companies today have what is called a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP or DRiP).  Moreover, many ALSO have a a "Direct Purchase Plan" through which you can purchase your very first share of stock, completely circumventing the need for a brokerage account.  The fees are much lower e.g. $1 per DRP trade instead of $19.99 a trade at Etrade. \n\nSimply buy stocks of companies you do business with.  I've involved myself in the employee stock purchase plan of every company I've worked for and invested in many others that have DRPs.\n\nExamples: Bank America, McDonald's, Merck, Pepsico, Proctor & Gamble, Regions Financial, Scana Corp, Outback steakhouse, etc.

You can open accounts at Vanguard or Fidelity, both have lower expense ratios compared to the competition. Most funds have a minimum initial investment of $2500, unless it's for an IRA. You can set up automatic deductions to buy into the fund monthly.\n\nAlternately, you can buy ETFs (Exchange Traded Funds). There may be an ETF that tracks a specific mutual fund you are looking at. Vanguard has a huge list on their web site. You can buy the ETFs through a discount online broker like scottrade.com or etrade.com. You pay per transaction but the maintenence fees are usually slightly lower than buying an actual mutual fund.

You can go to the company's home page and find out if they have direct investing options.  You see some companies allow you to buy stock directly through them McDonalds is one such company.  Buying common stock this way allows you to save money on brokerage fees.  Some companies sell for a small fee for 1 or two dollars and others for free. \n\nYou can also talk to a financial advisor.  Your local bank is a good place to start.  You can also find a financial advisor the American Express.  You can also open an account with one of the online trading companies.  However, research these carefully/.  I also suggest setting up a special bank account if you are going to do this.  This will prevent someone from using you online account to completely wipe out your savings.  \n\nOne last thing remember the market is an extremely volatile and you need to research any company prior to investing in it.  And any investment you make may bring larger rewards are extremely large disapointments.\n\nGood Luck!
