Have a lovely rainy afternoon, I was wondering when you started investing and what was your first investment :) i bought my first shares 10 years ago (over) along with my first investment property using a mortgage.

I started investing about a year ago. In the beginning I invested through a port in the SP500 and the first stock I bought was $AAPL.

Cool :) i assume there is no port for the meeting of the day now?

Less than 3 years ago, the first one I went through a port, I cancelled it after half a year and started doing it myself, the first ones were ETFs on US500, then gradually stocks were added.

May 2022. A friend showed me eToro, so I put some money in and later got sucked in. The first stocks were $AMZN, $PYPL, $CRSR and (thankfully) a tiny position in $TTCF.

And you're still going through eToro?

8 years back mortgage. Then paid off and another mortgage on an investment apartment. Added stocks and bitcoin 3 years ago. So diversification is decent :-)

I bought my first Apple and sold it in a minute for a profit of 4 cents🤣 That was my first trade.

That's what I call passive income. 😁😁
