Things you should know about EasyEquities.
"Buying shares"🥱 the first thing that come to ones mind when this talk is engaged unto is that, you need to have thousands if not millions of rands in order to own shares. What if I told you that's not true? yes, it's not true! You can now be a share holder with as little as R0.50c , how cool is that?
Easyequities, the name is starting to be familiar now to many investors who are beginning to seek financial freedom. This platform was found in 2014 by Charles Savage who is a South African citizen. The aim was to provide people with a chance to invest in their favourite brands at an affordable range of prices. The money is in our minds it's up to us to think it out and make the actions make it come alive. (pretty deep right?)😄
The Easyequities app later came into scene when the nation hit the lockdown and many companies took a hit which led to many people being retrenched. Although this wasn't a positive way for the app to shine but as they say "there is no right or wrong time to shine".
Many people who ran out of jobs realised that saving some partials in their salaries on it own wasn't really helping, and they had to find other sources of income, which were to be remotely since there were strong Covid 19 rules, so almost everyone had to work from home.
Easyequities than came into the spotlight as soon as many people realized that they were missing out all along. If they had invested their savings, instead of fixing them in their accounts they would've made a better profit, that could've helped them in the rainy days. (times of Covid)
Easyequities offers a wide range of companies from Africa, Australia, United States & UK (for now although they are planning to expand their shares portfolio by adding other countries as well). Buying shares has never been this easy, you just download the app from Google Playstore, install it, follow the prompts and you're good to go. The minimum deposit amount is ONLY R1, UNBELIEVABLE RIGHT? yeah I know.
Oh I forgot to mention that they also offer Demo accounts which have a virtual amount that can be used to practise on how to maneuver your way through the investing process.
The platform layout is simple and it's easy to use, it doesn't have glitches and in each and every share portfolio on this platform there is a graph which shows the previous performance of that particular company in the previous: day, week, month, year...you choose the time frame you want to see for FREE!🤷🏽♂️
Investing is a long term process and it also comes with it risks, it's not a get rich quick skeem like the one, the fraudlent investors/ traders promise to their students. Investing is now starting to be a lifestyle to many people and it is without a doubt why, who doesn't want to see his/ her money grow? no one for sure.
People of Mzansi are finally seeing the potential of investing and Easyequities has made it even much more easier to engage in it. You can now buy shares from your favourite brand from Nike to Apple etc. you can even buy shares from your favourite bank too! yup that's right.
Look at this great portfolio, this person surely knows his way around the companies and he did a good research about them.
In the world of finances one should know that knowledge is power, and that power comes with discipline. If you're not disciplined you'll always take a hard knock, and not want to go back only to find out that it was just a mere mistake which would've been fixed, which caused you to slip. If you can buy snacks and drinks which at the end of the day are liabilities, why can't you save that money and buy assets which will grow in value thus growing your money?
What are your thoughts about investing?
