Stock Market for Beginners is a comprehensive guide to getting started in investing on individual stocks and building your own personal portfolio.  This podcast was originally written by Sebastian Rodriguez, President of Prosperity Leaders, LLC, for the Prosperity Leaders blog. The term trading and investing are sometimes use interchangeably, however they mean different things.  When you trade, you buy something at one price and sell it later on at a higher price - at least that’s the goal. In contrast, when you invest, you purchase assets and hold them for over long periods of time.  I like to think about trading in terms of Stock Prices, while Investing in terms of Value.   When you trade, you only care about the price you buy and sell, when you invest you mainly care about the accumulated value over time.

At Prosperity Leaders we train and coach families to develop their own investing strategies.  Our Prosperity Professionals help everyday people identify their investor personality and financial goals & objectives, evaluate their current financial situation, and design a personal financial strategy to achieve their goals.  Contact a Prosperity Leaders Financial Professional Coach to learn more about our investing coaching program and how you can learn to become an investor yourself.

If you don’t understand something or feel uncomfortable doing anything, then maybe its time to take some advice from someone who does.  However, if you decide to do this by yourself, make sure that you at least take our Investor Personality Quiz, and always make decisions based on your investor personality.  Also, before making investment decisions, always be aware of your risk tolerance, state and federal tax, management fees or expense ratios on investment funds.
