- 16How to start investing with very little moneySmall savings make people afraid of losing everything to a market crash or a sudden emergency like a medical bill before they even learn how to build a portfolio. This fear, combined with confusion over whether to use a Roth IRA, 401(k), or demat account on a fixed income, prevents beginners from taking the first step.
- 5How to start managing money as a college studentCollege students face anxiety and uncertainty around how to begin budgeting, handling student loans, and saving for long-term goals like retirement and homeownership. This lack of a clear starting point leaves them feeling hopeless and unsure about how much to set aside.
