Over the next couple of weeks we're doing a couple of episodes chatting to the Get Started Investing community.

This episode is proudly brought to you by Sharesies, who help you invest, how you like. Easy! Choose from thousands of companies and funds across Australia, the US, and New Zealand — all with no minimum investment.

In this episode Bryce and Alec chat through and answer many questions from beginning investors from the Equity Mates Community, Alana and Maddy.

All the beginner investor questions you've been thinking are answered in this episode, like, "I have money, but don’t know where to start? What’s a good amount to invest for the first time? What else do I look for in a broker? How do I know the apps are safe from frauding my details? I have money, but don’t know where to start? Should I still be investing in a ‘safe’ return given I'm coming to investing a bit later in life? What conversations to have with your teenage kids to start investing early?"
