Here’s my investing journey (so far) 👀

I’ve been investing for the past seven years, and I’ve made quite a few changes over those years.

Here’s my investing journey breakdown –

➡️ 2018 to 2020 – TD mutual funds ($25 per month at first)
➡️ 2020 to 2021 – TD eSeries index funds ($250 per month, up to $7,000)
➡️ 2021 to 2024 – Wealthsimple Invest ETFs (switched to $1,000+ per month, up to $50,000)
➡️ 2024 onwards – Wealthsimple Trade ETFs (switched to $2,000 per month, up to $100,000)

For me, it was important to get started, and grow my knowledge and confidence over time. I’m in a great place now – I’m investing on my own in passive ETFs, and I’m paying very low fees.

  1. Im 34, and will hit my 100K this year..
    I started a couple of yesrs ago, i dont have a social influencer income, and have lost my 20s because i was an immigrant figuring everything out.
    But im happy im here, cause for many years i was afraid to start, and i saw a huge growth since i started. Wish I started earlier of cause, but hey, thats how jts

  2. Don’t use ROBO advisors .25% is 250 bucks a year for them to put your money into ETFs. Literally takes no time to put your own money in VOO and Vxus then you are done. Especially at her age she needs to be aggressive with her investments

  3. I wish I did dollar cost averaging when I started working in my 20s. I work in finance and was very traumatized in my early 20s because I made a bad trade and lost around $200k almost wiping out everything I had. I never really invested since and was a disciplined saver. I only got back into investing/trading now at 34 years old after learning about fear management and the contrarian way to invest. I had $300k saved up and when there was volatility earlier this year in April I bought in the stock market and made a quick gain of $150k. I now have around $500k and regaining my confidence with trading and investing. I don’t hand pick individual stocks and will only allocate a small portion if I see a stock that is promising but i stick to trading ETFs as the bulk of my portfolio!

  4. I don’t make that much money but started at 22. Maybe only 50 dollars a month. All I can do at the time. Now at 26 i invest 500 in total for me any my son. I have about 6k and my son 4k. As well as my pension that i put an additional 2% of my check into. I’m on track to retire at 55 and my son to have his college if he so chooses to go to be paid in full. It all starts with a little something. Even 5 dollars a week is something! Please do it!

  5. so what she’s saying pretty much is, at age 23-26 , find a better job or get a raise. she went from $25/m to $2,000/m . where’d the extra money laying around come from if had the same job

  6. This doesn't mean anything without a few questions. Your parents or husband could have done a lot of the heavy lifting.

    How much money do you make annually?
    Do you have student loans?
    Car debt?
    Own a home?
    Have kids/want?

    I see you in a city which is likely more expensive and drinking coffee from a coffee shop
