Cameron’s Answer

I'm no stock expert, but investment websites like E*trade and Vanguard are great places to start! They make investing in stocks or mutual funds pretty easy to understand.

If you are working and your employer offers you a 401k plan, I would also recommend setting aside some of your paycheck to your retirement account. Even though your take-home pay will decrease, that amount you put aside will grow and help you in the future.

Austin’s Answer

I would begin your investment journey by reading One Up on Wall Street by Peter Lynch. This book will give you an understanding on the basic of investing as well as spotting great investment opportunities. You can then expand your knowledge through other books, or you could browse YouTube for a wide variety of information. When you feel like you have an understanding of the stock market, you can use a platform like WeBull or Robinhood to start investing.
I will never tell anyone where to invest there money, but I will tell them this. Be patience.
