Brown Tips
1. Open an Investment Account
To invest in stocks, you'll need a specialized type of account called a brokerage account.
These accounts are offered by companies such as TD Ameritrade, E*Trade, and many others. Opening a brokerage is typically a quick and painless process that you can do in a matter of minutes. You can easily fund your brokerage account via EFT transfer, by mailing a check, or by wiring money.
2. Invest in Wonderful Companies
Investing means placing your money with stable companies, which have upside. If a company does not meet this general criteria, you're gambling, not investing.
3. Start Today - It's Never too Late or Early
Warren Buffet made over 99% of his fortune after his 50th birthday, so what's your excuse.
