Are you wondering what are some ways that you can make investments without having a ton on money?
Firstly, we must remember that an investment is simply a purchased asset that is expected to increase in value and serve as a stream of income with time. This can be risky but the higher the risk, the higher the returns.
Now let's talk about investing in stocks aka equity or shares!
This is when you invest in a company by purchasing equity which is a form of gaining ownership of a company in exchange for funding or investing in them. Once you become a shareholder you can get a return on your investment (aka profit) in two ways:
when you sell the stocks for more than it cost you to purchase them (aka Capital gains)
dividends, which are the portion of profits that some companies distribute to shareholders.
If you're interested in investing in your local stock exchange you can do so through an authorized dealer or broker! There are main options other than stocks to invest such as Unit Trust, Real Estate, etc. but it certainly one of those safe and easier to do it with fewer funds.
