Quick Tip - Buying Your First Stock

  • Find a company that you know well
  • A well established company that has been around for a long time
  • Have a look at analyst reports of the company and see if they are pointing to a higher price in the future
  • Purchase the minimum amount and never any amount that you can't afford to lose
  • Once you own it read and research everything you can as a way of learning how companies are valued
  • Be prepared for the stock to drop after you purchase it. It will prepare you for losses and handling the psychology of investing
  • Keep learning
