Description

In “How To Start Investing In Stocks For A Complete Beginner”, you will learn how to buy stocks so that you can get your money working for you. This is the first step toward financial freedom. Imagine a life where you work only if you want to work. You are free to spend your time doing what you want, when you want without worrying about money. Opening a brokerage account and investing in stocks is the first step toward that life, but you have to know how to do that, and it will go much faster if you can avoid the costly mistakes that beginning investors make. This isn’t a get rich quick scheme, this is the power of compound returns. It starts out slow, but give it enough time and it can fund any lifestyle you can imagine.

You can find this information all over the internet. The problem is that they

  • are unable to give the information in a format that is easy to understand

  • they get commissions or kickbacks when you buy things that aren’t ideal for you

  • don’t get you to take action.

I have used my knowledge and experience as a personal finance teacher to create a course that:

  • is easy to understand.

  • unbiased for commissions or kickbacks

  • gets results.

I have included lessons on opening up your first brokerage account all the way to choosing investments. The course also includes quizzes and a complete video walkthrough to make sure that you are able to take action on what you learned. At the end of this course you will have opened your brokerage account and started making investments all while avoiding the mistakes most beginners make, so you can become financially free.

Who this course is for:

  • people that want to start investing in stocks
  • people that have put little thought into their investments
  • NOT for experienced investors
  • People that live in United States. (the brokerage accounts and retirement accounts are for US investors)
