You can get started with as little as $5. Many brokers out there allow you to start that way. Best Online Stock Brokers for Beginners (investopedia.com) Check out Robinhood, SOFI, Vanguard, Schwab, etc. and see which ones best fit your starting point. Your best bet would be to find some good broad (S&P500) ETF's to get rolling on and just keep adding to them as you go.

Good advice @CycloneD. I would add to that to also take a look at Stash. They also allow you to get started with $5. Just as an aside, I joined Stash through Swagbucks (a site that pays you for taking surveys, watching videos, etc.) and earned 3500SB which I redeemed for gift cards.
