How To Get Started Investing For High Schoolers Basic Guide

 First Get Started Investing As Early As Possible. Next Decide How much Do You Wanna Invest. Generally Aim To Invest 10-15% Of  Your Income Every Month Consistently. Set Up An Investment Account. Search for the best online broker and which that doesn't have a minimum investment. Understand the Types of Investments Like Stocks: Share of Ownership in a company. Bond: Loan Given to a company or Government Entity. Mutual funds: Basket of Different Stocks and bunch of investments packed ( Considered a Safe Investment as there are mix of investments and so if one investment goes downhill others may fluctuate higher and that's why its important to diversify your investments). Exchange Traded Funds: Like a mutual fund holds many different investments bundled together. ETFs are priced lower than a mutual fund which makes it a great option for beginner investors. Last but not least Pick an investment Strategy Your investment strategy depends on your saving goals, how much money you need to reach them and your time horizon. If you’re saving for a short-term goal and you need the money within five years, the risk associated with stocks means you're better off keeping your money safe, in an online savings account, cash management account or low-risk investment portfolio. We outline the best options for short-term savings here. Robo-advisors largely build their portfolios out of low-cost ETFs and index funds. Because they offer low costs and low or no minimums, robos let you get started quickly. They charge a small fee for portfolio management, generally around 0.25% of your account balance.
