I looked a bit over here, but don't see anything super helpful .
Is there anywhere you guys would advise starting with to learn about investing etc.
(Or if someone can help me start)
I'm currently just playing around with banks , keeping up with the high interest banks. However I feel like I should be learning or doing more with the money I have. However since I have no experience or have never been introduced to it, I'm very unaware and clueless of what I'm doing.
Any and all help would be helpful.
I'm not against giving to someone else, if anyone has a good advisor they would suggest.
I have an advisor that's given to us at work, but can't figure out if he has my best interests in mind or not.
He told me to put in money where there is a charge for initial deposit or something?
I feel like there should be some helpful posts around here somewhere.
What are you looking for?
Recommendations on where to put your money? we'd need a bit more detail - how long you're putting it away for/risk appetite/etc.
General financial-investing education? How do you learn best? There are books/websites you can read, forums more focused on finance, youtube channels, podcasts, etc. (here's one intro
from Investopedia.com - but don't rely or get stuck on one place, keep reading and learning)
He told me to put in money where there is a charge for initial deposit or something?
Do you have the name of the fund he recommended? Sometimes they may recommend a fund with an up front fee instead of an annual fee, as if you'll be leaving it there for more than X years it'll come out cheaper than the same fund with an annual fee.
