If you’re a college student and you’re lucky enough to have a job, you might have some extra money lying around. Instead of blowing that money, why not invest it in something? No, I’m not talking about the stock market – you don’t have to throw your dough on a random ticker symbol or research that next great stock – I’m talking about trading currency.

Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to Forex. Forex offers a great site where users can trade currency online. Not only that, they offer educational materials as well as a free practice account and free training videos. As you learn how to navigate in the currency trading market, you’ll also find a lot of helpful community support in the Forex forums.

Upon my visit to the site, I found the design very aesthetically pleasing. The page is nice and plain and absent of the clutter that plagues most site designs on the internet. The site is easy to navigate – nice big buttons and links – and access to most sections of Forex are only a click away.

I’m thinking about opening an account with them, myself. If anyone of my excellent readers beats me to the punch and wants to fill us in on the quality of the service, fire me an email and I’ll highlight you in a post!
