Sounds like great self care
How many hours do you normally work a week?
45 to 55 a week
Ouch, similar to me
I wish someone had told my younger self and I’d ignored my ex husband
Ffs
Invest in the s&p500
£100 a month, you won’t regret it in 20y
What is the s and p ?
You familiar with the ftse100?
Yeah
Basically it’s shares, but instead of putting all your eggs (or £100) into one basket, you spread it around 500 baskets each month. If the price rises you get a bit less for your money, and if the price drops then you get more
Kind of like trading but a company is doing it for you
Kind of yes. It’s like a tracker fund
Ignore the numbers in green, I actually put £2600 in
I forgot to put it in an ISA, so moved it
Sounds good so you’ve put 2.6 in and got a return off 381 pound ?
More
It’s worth £3.2k as I took that
The main thing is, is to not lose your nerve if the markets drop. It’s a good way of getting cheap shares
Historically over medium to long term it always recovers
What’s the website called ? I will have a look at it
I use trading 212
But there’s others out there
I don’t have a link at the moment, so I can’t even make any money from this 😩🤣
lol let me know when you get a link
IDK when that will be. Look into it and just do it if you’re comfy
The sooner you start investing the better. You understand about compound interest? This works on a similar basis
I don’t but I work with a guy who is in to trading so I will ask him
Have you heard of Warren Buffet? He’s an American billionaire. He invests a chunk of his money in the S&P500
Just don’t let your trading buddy convince you to do day trading and short selling. Way too risky for us. Only bet what you can afford to lose (single shares is like betting to me)
S&P500 over the last 25y
It’s on the up and up then looks good
Investing more each month for a higher return aswell
That’s just the basic S&P500 figures
Defo something to look at doing
We aren’t taught to be financially literate when we’re kids sadly
I’m going to set one up for my grandchildren, maybe £25 a month
When they arrive that is
Honestly it’s something that should be taught in schools Mortgages etc how to be financially stable
Yup, agree
Afternoon
