Ask Sherry: How to begin investing

You asked, and I am answering every Friday once I have enough questions!

You can ask any question using the form here.

I am very eager to self-invest, based out of Canada. I read your blog and other sites like Morning Star and Investing 101. But it seems too overwhelming. What and where should I start with? Your twenty cents for beginners like me?? Thanks a bunch already for your inputs, appreciate it!!!

You can start here: Investing Series. I wrote a whole bunch of posts on investing.

If you are truly interested in INDIVIDUAL do it yourself investing like buying ETFs and so on, you should sign up for a brokerage account so you can buy and trade.

You have them offered through banks (I went through the list of Canadian banks and discount brokerages), and the cheapest one is Questrade

  • Questrade: Use my QTrade referral { o0soehds } for $50 in free trades (this is how you buy & trade on Questrade)

I also wrote a book that basically tells you exactly what to do for Canadians.

Step by step, with screenshots and what it all means:

The Budgeting Tool

About Me

I am a wealth-obsessed, style-focused, minimalist.

I got out of $60,000 of debt in 18 months with The Budgeting Tool which I now sell online and donate its net proceeds to charity, along with The Investing Tool.

I've also authored two books: Start a Blog Like a Boss - Making $1000 USD a month & Invest your Money Like a Boss - In 4 Hours a Year.

I earn like a princess when I work but am trying hard to live like a duchess instead by not spending all of it.

The rest of the time I relax and enjoy the time off by traveling, although traveling has been on hold lately with the arrival of Little Bun, my rambunctious, ever-hungry little boy.

Welcome.
