95. How to start investing with $5

Ana Kresina & Natasha Etschmann
About this episode

Investing can feel daunting – especially when you hear stories of seven-figure shares portfolios. However, you don’t need to part with the bulk of your monthly income to become an investor. In fact, with micro-investing platforms, you can create an investment portfolio with as little as $5.


In this session, Tash and Ana explore micro-investing, and discuss its pros and cons. They also compare it to other styles of investing, and detail how you could get started with it.
