Start Investing

How you invest is up to you and your preferences. You could hire someone to manage your stocks for you, such as a financial planner, or you could do it yourself. You can also decide your approach to investing. Some people prefer to have an active hand in managing their investments, whereas others prefer a “set it and forget it” approach.

Now that you understand how investing works, determine how actively you want to invest, and consider some of the options listed below to get started, each with their own costs. In many cases, you will pay for a service to help you invest.

Financial Wellness @ Penn is not endorsing any of the services listed below, but instead are presenting you with some common ways that people start investing. It's up to you to decide what works best for you.
