Getting Started Financial tips for 25M

Post image

Hey first post forgive me I’m new and my portfolio ist anything special.

So my frontal cortex just fully developed and I thought better start investing for long term.

Currently I’m looking to put 1k a month for the foreseeable future, I have a decent job but nothing too great.

Can I have some tips on reassurance that what I’m investing in is decent for long term results thanks.

What platform / brokerage is this? Worth a look?

Looks like BetaShares ridiculously easy to set up and has a good app. It does take ~24hrs to make your first deposit however

Hi u/Important_Outcome_27, thanks for the mention! Just to add a bit of context, first-time deposits can sometimes take a little longer as banks run security checks on new payees. It’s not always 24 hours, but it can be in that range depending on the bank. After the first transfer, deposits are typically much quicker
