   No, because you have to pay interest on the loan and thus your return on investment already diminishes from that. With only $2000 you cannot build a well diversified portfolio and $2000 itself isn’t going to make you very much money and you must also consider the stock markets risk. Investing in the stock market takes a lot of knowledge and time, as a student you should be more focused on school. If you want to earn some extra money I’d suggest possibly taking that $2000 and putting it in a CD(Certificate of Deposit) in which you can’t touch the money for a certain period of time and you earn interest on it. This has nearly no risk to it. A cool thing you could do is do a simulated stock portfolio(yahoo offers this), and get some practice with how the stock market works. Excellent Luck with whatever you choose!

   Well, it sounds like a plot but if the stock fails then you are up the proverbial creek.

   It depend that you are looking for the long term or small term investment and which stock to invest.
   But if you just started investing in stock, it not adviseable to do so, better wait until you are ready.
   It alway not late to gain fantastic money but it will make lot of tension if you losing the money you loan of.
