    Read.
    All the threads on LICs and ETFs.
    Read the beginners guide to LICs.
    Then read anything else you find in this section on LICs.
    Once you have done that - you will know what to do.

    Any listed LIC you can buy through a broker like Commsec, bell direct etc.

    Not many newbies start with LICs and ETFs. The lure other things is too much. Well done for starting so grounded
