  • You may never be as rich as the uber-wealthy, but you can still reap the same percentage returns that they do on their money.

The article from MSN Money discusses the significant portion of Americans, about 37%, who do not own stocks, highlighting the barriers to entry like perceived complexity and risk. It outlines three straightforward methods for individuals to start investing: 1) Using a Robo-Advisor - which automates investment management by creating and managing a diversified portfolio based on an investor's risk tolerance and goals. 2) Investing in Index Funds - these funds track a broad market index like the S&P 500, offering diversification and lower risk compared to individual stocks. 3) Micro-Investing Apps - apps like Acorns or Stash allow users to invest small amounts of money, often rounding up everyday purchases to the nearest dollar and investing the change.
