If you're new to investing and want to get started, there are several essential concepts and areas you should learn about to make informed investment decisions. Here are some key topics to get you started. Take the time to educate yourself, and seek guidance from financial experts if needed.

Why Invest?

- Investing in stocks, index funds, and ETFs offer the potential for long-term capital appreciation and income generation.

- By investing, you can participate in the growth and success of well-performing companies.

- However, it’s important to note that investing in securities also carries risks, including the potential for capital loss. This is why we encourage all to research first, then invest.

How Are They Traded?

- These securities are typically bought and sold on stock exchanges. The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) or NASDAQ are well-known examples of these which you may have heard of before on the news. 

- Investors can buy or sell stocks through brokerage accounts, either with the assistance of a broker or through online platforms. The most commonly used firms include Fidelity, TD Ameritrade, Charles Schwab, and more.
