MICRO-INVESTING #personalfinance #investing Follow up to my post from 8 months ago: https://noise.cash/post/p0z2rwvan76x 8 months is long enough to think about doing something. So! There are lots of micro-investing platforms out there. After looking at the different micro-investing platforms I decided on STASH. I chose this platform for a number of reasons. They are US-based; they been licensed and approved by the appropriate federal agencies; and my research indicated that it's a good investing platform for newbies or beginners. Also, since it said I could get started with as little as $5, I figured … WHY NOT? They offer free investing advice. First you create a profile that tells them what type of investor you are. It turns out I'm “conservative”. Based on that profile they help you pick #stocks, #ETFs, etc. They will help you create what's called a #Smart #portfolio. I clicked the button for help with that and I am pleased with the “mix”. For my portfolio they chose both cryptocurrencies and corporations to invest in. You can do a one-time purchase OR you can set up an automated recurring purchase. I set my automated purchases to $5 biweekly I'm thinking, why waste $5 every 2 weeks eating at a fast food restaurant, when I can invest it. It's too early to say what kind of results of this financial endeavor will yield. But you will never know the success of a move until you make it!

I have bid 'investment' goodbye and only reap the fruit of my good old days labour where I had invested in shares and mutual funds.
My husband has passed away and he was the one who did most of the investing. Most of the investment money had to go toward paying our debts. I'm on my own and this is what I'll be doing for the rest of my life. I figure I can leave the accounts to my kids.
