  1. Jario wasdown to earth and spoke to us on a level that we could understand. Because their is so much involved with investing. Such as Roth IRA.COD. The bear Market effect and the Bull Market.the Auto save account. The importance in having a safety net and goal. Before you start an investment account. I have learned some much from this class and all the resources that has been offered to us.

    2. Hi Margaret I agree...one of the most important things to me that he mentioned was having a job, savings and life insurance are things you should have first beforehand then your next steps could be investing...that's keeping it real and the reality of it....

  2. Once again Im so glad Im attending this class. I have been investing with IGA for years. All I have them do is take certain amount of money from each paycheck. I never tried buying/selling or doing anything because I was not sure of what I was doing. Is amazing to see how much I have learned in 1 hour compared to the many websites I have navigated to understand how investing works. As far as what measure I will undertake to ensure my investment is well protected. Well, first I will research Jairo and a few other investments before I can allow and trust someone else to gamble my money.

    1. I agree with you too Aisha! I dont think I'm ready to invest yet, I need to build my emergency fund. But now that I am more informed I feel better about the investing world.

  4. I think is really important to have a financial advisor who is open and has your best interest in mind. It's important that the people or companies you invest in are responsible and trustworthy. The types of investments that you make are also a different way to be mindful of the risk. Big word from this investment session was DIVERSIFYING. Ensuring that not all of your eggs are in one bucket, for a more stable gains and losses.
