Forex trading is not a scam and it's not a zero sum game. Well, technically if you look at the entire forex market then it is a zero sum game, but because the retail sector of forex trading is so tiny in comparison to the huge world banks and institutions that are responsible for most of the foreign exchange turnover, the money you profit from forex trading is definitely not at the expense of another forex trader.
Forex Trading can certainly be profitable but you need to invest time to learn the business, develop a strategy and practice until you have the right discipline and mindset to become a serious and responsible forex trader. Most of the people who trade forex lose their money because they treat it like gambling or they let emotions get in the way. However, there are many people out there make their living trading currencies.

Stock Investing Tips
I am going to start off by saying that there is no actual guide to invest in stocks. Research is the key to your success and before getting in the stock market you need to do a lot of it. I will be guiding you with tips and information that will be necessary for you to successful.
1.Decide whether you want to be an invesor (long term buyer) or a trader (short term buyer)
2.If you want to be a trader then basically you need to understand human behavior well and how various news will affect the prices of a stock
3.If you want to be a trader or investor you have to have knowledge of the fundamentals of accounting. Teach yourself through taking a basic accounting course and reading books and websites like www.investopedia.com
4.Learn the basics of the economy. Take an introductory course of read books and websites. Wikipedia has great articles on the important concepts you need to know
5.Read "The Intelligent Investor" the greatest book on investing ever.
Once you have obtained sufficient knowledge on the stock market you will be ready for the next steps.
6.Open an e-trade (or similar) account.
7.If you are an investor spend some time analysing a the balance sheets of a variety of companies in whichever indutries you are interested in. Eventually decide on some attractive stocks and purchase when the P/E ratio hits a level which you consider ideal
8.If you are a trader listen to the news, use tools like market volatility index etc to asses conditions on the market and start a transaction. You can buy stocks and go long if you believe they will increase in price or short a stock and basically borrow the stock sell it and purchase it back at a later date to return to who you borrowed it from if you believe the price will drop.
These are the basics, don't listen to anyone tell you the hot stock including rating agencies and brokers, do research youself.
