Hi everyone,
Recently I have been seeing a lot of financial videos and a lot of financial people saying to grow your money via the stock market (index funds, ETFs etc) and how the stock market averages just under 10 percent return a year so if you invest in the long run and put additional amounts every year your money will grow a lot by 30 years.
I am in my late 20s so I do wish I knew things such as investing in index funds, ETF before but I guess it is better late than ever. I am willing to put a initial deposit of say £5-£10k and put additional contributions every year when I can (£1,000 to £2,000) or what I can afford
Which platform do you recommend using? I have heard of Hargreaves Lansdown, AJ Bell and Vanguard. What is the process in opening an account and what are the tax implications for future growth and dividends if I open via a cash ISA (which I do not have yet).
Thank you.
