Investing is habit
Is a myth you can only invest if you have lots of money. Investing is not a goal, activity, or task, it’s a habit. It’s something you do regularly, just like you work out, meditate, read or anything else that takes time to yield results.
ex: If you invest $500/mo in the S&P500 (an index of the largest US companies) you will get to $1M in 35 years. The S&P500 grows 8% a year on average and it compounds over time.
