Investing Basics [Video]

When I first started investing, I learned about various options available. Stocks represent ownership in a company and can offer high returns but come with more risk.

Bonds are loans to governments or corporations, typically providing steady income with lower risk.

Real estate investments can include buying property or investing in REITs (Real Estate Investment Trusts).

ETFs and mutual funds pool money from multiple investors to buy a diversified portfolio of stocks or bonds. I find these particularly useful for beginners.
