Notes from the author

I started my investing journey at, quite possibly one of the worst times ever, right before the pandemic in 2020 before the stock markets tumbled in reaction to the outbreak of Covid-19.

However, as a complete novice I really had no idea what I was doing other than knowing that I wanted to and needed to invest in order to help my future-self.

Armed with little information, I scoured the internet for hours and hours trying to educate myself on the best ways to invest, where to open an investing account, and honestly just trying to understand why I needed to invest.

Knowing that this information is not as easily attainable as it should be, I have now added everything I believe you need to know in this guide to help you. This isn’t just for beginners (the title helps our site get found!) but is for anyone and everybody who wants to ensure they are happy with how investing can work for them.

If you have any questions on investing, or anything in this guide, please do not hesitate to contact us.
