How Risky Is The Stock Market?

Do you want to invest in stocks and shares but are concerned about the risk? Let me show you how I think the stock market doesn't need to be risky at all!

As a beginner the idea of Investing in Stocks and Shares can be terrifying! If you are anything like me when I first started, your head is filled with the idea that investing in stocks and shares is very risky and that ultimately all your money could just disappear in a second. You may as well just be burning it!!

But after years of investing it is now my opinion that this isn't the case! let's take a look at why a lot of people overestimate the risk of investing in stocks and shares and why ultimately it is my opinion that the riskiest investment you can make is not buying stocks and shares at all!

Feel free to ask me any questions you like in the comments, i will reply to them all.

Below are the timestamps and all the links you need from the video.
