You know what I think they should start offering to all college students? A course in basic financial success and investing 101. Though as an undergrad, I probably couldn’t have cared less about what student loan debt really looked like, or how I should approach my 401(k). But fast forward a few years, and as a late twenty-something, I find myself pretty confused about how to start investing. There’s something so intimidating about the process when you don’t even know where to begin!
So in a mission to shed some light on the subject, I talked to my friend and chartered financial analyst, William Teague. Naturally, I started with a few simple questions (“how can I get started?” and “what should I invest in?”), and he broke it down into six simple ways to start investing today. Check them out in the slideshow above and tell me how are you saving for your future? Cheers, Kat
