Has it made you a lot of money or little money? Has it helped you make some side passive income? Is it a considerable source of income? How long did it take you to get to where you are and how much have you invested?

Finally: for someone starting today, how much do you recommend them deposits? (Aggressive portfolio)

      If convenience and simplicity is what you seek, take a good look at SoFi. You can have your paychecks direct deposit into their checking account and automatically have $1000/month go into the market.

    Instead of paying a third party, assuming you're comfortable picking your own stocks or ETFs, why not just allocate a part of your paycheck to be directly deposited into either an IRA or an investment account? Cut out the middleman and you're still putting money away to invest

      Thank you for the valuable advice. I’m really young and am working my first contractual job while attending college so I’m not sure if I qualify.

    I used Acorns for 4 years until they tripled the monthly fee.
    I had set up monthly transfer and the spare change thing. Overall had a good silent savings built up over time.
    Using stash App these days
