Helpful Tips For Novice Investors

March 3, 2021 by Annie

Most people would invest their money if they just knew how. The “know how” seems to be the most valuable aspect of investing. Unfortunately, it’s not common knowledge.

If you’re one of those people, then a little help could go a long way. Take a few moments now to learn some simple ways to start your investing journey. Read through this brief compilation of a few helpful tips for novice investors, and get ready to start making some money.

Start investing as soon as possible

Investing your money is to play the long game. It takes time to see your dollar amounts rise when you’re investing, so starting as young as possible is advised.

If you have small children, you can do them a favor by setting up an investment account for them while they’re still little. By the time your kids become adults, they’ll have a nice stack of dough to build their own empires.

Invest in a 401(k)

Not everyone has the chance to invest in a 401(k), but you should always take the opportunity when it presents itself. Investing in a 401(k) will build a stash of cash to support you after retirement.

However, there are also more immediate benefits to investing in a 401(k) plan. You will have access to the funds before you retire, though it’s not wise to tap into your 401(k) too often. You want to make sure you still have enough money for retirement.

Check out the benefits of a term deposit

A term deposit account offers higher interest rates than a typical savings account. The catch is that you cannot access the funds deposited into your term deposit account until the set term for maturity expires.

Automate your savings account

Automating your savings deposits will make sure you keep building your stored cash. You can set up your savings account to automatically take money from your main account every week (or month), so you don’t have to worry about keeping up with the deposits.

Don’t put all your eggs in one basket

Diversification is important for a solid, all-around investing strategy. If you only have one investment source, you won’t have as much stability in your growth. Work to diversify your investments, so you don’t have the danger of losing everything if one thing goes wrong.

Seek out professional guidance

You can learn all the book smarts there are to learn about investing, but application is different. You may benefit from the assistance of a professional. Consider bringing in a financial advisor to help you get the most out of your investments, and don’t waste time learning things the hard way.

 

About Me

Hi! I'm Annie and I have 3 kids (all in their teens - yikes!). My mommy blog isn't all about lunches and DIY - it's also about humour. Like how my kids make fun of my texts as if I don't know how to use emojis (I DO!). Now that I have a bit more time - since my kids don't want to hang out with me (teenagers), I have taken up blogging.
