Ask Shannah: 5 Common Investing Taboos T...

About this episode

Are these 5 investing taboos keeping you stuck?

In Today's Shannah Shares, Community Q&A reboot episode, I tackle a question from Laquesha: "Hi, Shannah. Thanks so much for answering my question. I really want to start investing, but I keep getting hung up on all the chatter out there. I can’t figure out if I’m supposed to wait to start investing until I’ve paid off all my debt, or is that not smart to do? Also, it just feels like I need to be an expert at investing to do it well. I know that’s not true, but it just feels so hard to figure out investing. I know so many people are making a killing, and I kinda feel bad that I haven’t started at all, know what I mean. You’ve done so many great investing episodes; I’m curious if there’s an episode from the past that you think I should check out. You’re awesome, and I so appreciate this show for motivating me. My boyfriend can’t believe I care this much about my money, but I just tell him, yes, yes I do, and so should you. Ok, thanks again."
