“Ideal” investment
Hello! I’m M21 and a full-time university student. I’ve managed to build up a considerable amount of savings through stipends and bursaries, and I’m starting to think about investing some of it.
I’m wondering what would be a reasonable amount to invest as a student, and what types of investments might be worth considering. I don’t come from a well-off background, so I’m naturally quite cautious about taking on unnecessary risk.
I understand there’s no “ideal” investment plan and that it ultimately depends on things like goals, timeframe and risk tolerance.
I’m not looking to be spoon-fed lol, I’ve just come across so many different options online that I’d appreciate some perspective from people who have more experience with investing.
