Edit edit- if you are a student and don’t have any money DM me and we can work something out!
I'm not young. Sixty two. I have a financial advisor, a pension, 401 k, roth, and money market. All is doing well, but I want to do things on my own and learn. I've got a few hundred dollars to invest a month and I am excited to get started. Thanks for making this clear, easy to follow video.
That’s great Georgia! Thanks so much!
Who's here after the Robinhood fiasco this morning!!!!!!
Looking to go elsewhere. Thinking Webull or Fidelity
I think most of us they think there going to tell us who we can and cant invest in
@@rozlincoln3568 that 4 free stock advertisement is nice
M1 Finance is really nice to use as an alternative. No free stocks like Webull though!
Shameless link drop:

I just turned 23 yesterday and I’ve been seriously considering investing. I’d be lying if I said “I’m not nervous” to start moving forwards with this- but I feel like this is a smart life decision for me to partake in.
I spend a lot of money every month, why can’t I put that away for investments instead? Leave something for my future.
Thank you for being so insightful and for making this video easy to understand.
These are great realizations!!
Turning 22 tomorrow and I have the same exact thoughts! Already have a Roth IRA and am trying to maximize the $6000
Man. THIS dude gets it. This felt sincere, personable, thorough and informative. God bless you for being selfless in your approach to subscribers & notification alerts. Thank you.
Wow thanks so much for your kind words!
yes, this is new to me, all I hear is robinhood
I'm new to investing and have watched ALOT of videos and yours has helped me understand more then the others combined. Thanks man! Please keep them coming!
Thanks a TON Ian! Stay tuned for more!
Hi Brendan! First time seeing one of your videos and I really enjoyed it. You come across as genuine and that says a lot. I subscribed to your channel and I look forward to your future videos. Have a great day and stay safe!
Oliver thanks so much for that! I’m really glad you enjoyed it! I’m working on the next video right now actually. I hope it’s helpful too!
You might be my new favorite UA-camr. The way you ended the video was just so classy. Instant subscribe
Wow, Xavier what a compliment, thank you!!
So true - me too
This was a really precise and informative video with no bullshit or filler, just relevant content. Thank you and Subbed!
Thanks so much David!
Ready for your video to blowup over these couple of weeks.
You and me both! Thanks for watching!
You’re amazing. You completely understand INVESTING, for BELIEVING in a company and not trying to make a quick buck. I’ve seen so many people around me fail and I wish I could help them, but I realized I can send them this video because you took the time and communicated investing perfectly. Thank you so much for this video.
No YOU’RE amazing. It’s so exciting to think that a video of mine could potentially help people. Thank you for this!
Hello
Thank you. Of everything I've been watching you are the easiest to understand.
@Brenden Prather thanks a ton! That means a lot and was my goal!!
Finally!! A CLEAR video for beginners!
Thank you so much.
I just subscribed
Thank you for making this so concise! You definitely more than sparked my interest.
Thanks Teo!
you're right; it's hard to take the first step...I really liked the video, and also your approach. I appreciate the info - liked and subbed. Great content, flow and pacing - worthwhile 22 minutes. thanks, bro
Wow, thanks!!
I’m new to investing and am in my early 30’s . I’ve subscribed to your channel because of how genuine you sounded in your attempt to help beginners. Looking forward to more information and growth.
Thanks Anthony!!
I agree. Keep it going and appreciate the help!
Brother.......this has been the best video to choose a platform these days with all this fiasco that just happened. I subscribed just because of this!
Finally in a position where I have extra money and feel personally comfortable to look into investing, and this video was a great help.
Thank you, I liked and subbed. 😎
Congrats that’s an awesome milestone! And thanks!
You grabbed my attention very well with this video! I am easily distracted sometimes. I spaced off during the video but the moment I snapped back, I went back to a part I had already viewed and watched it again, just to get back on track. There is a lot of very sound advice and fair insight of the platforms mentioned in this video. The atmosphere and tone you presented in was very inviting and relatable. Thank you, good sir!
Thank you for your incredibly kind words!
A+ in quality and editing
Wow, thanks for the awesome grade!
Excellent video and I appreciate what you said at the end...time is priceless so thank you for that!!
Thank you and thanks for watching!!
I don't know how long you've had this channel but I appreciate the simplified teaching. I hate how people make teaching seem so complex when it's not
Thanks so much!
Very well-spoken and easy to understand the concepts. I wish I had college professors that taught information as well as you do.
Thank you! 🙏
Wow great video. I love that you really gave real information and didn’t talk all over the place. Such a refreshing video without the extra stuff we don’t need.
That’s for those amazing compliments Kyheroh! I feel like I did sort of talk all over the place!
For the last two years I’ve used this as a savings account for Christmas gifts. The fact you get cask back going through their app, and being able to use their debit card for those purchases makes this a no-brainer! It’s so much better than a “Christmas savings club” at a bank.
What’s the thing you’ve used?
@@BrendanEvan yeah like, they didn’t say which 😂
Thank you for the thoughtful and educational introduction to the over complicated world of beginner investing. I'm starting a little late in life upon the road of wealth management (49 and a half) for the simple reason that they have made investing more approachable to those of us who don't have 750lbs of surplus cash to drop into a brokerage account. I found your content to be unpretentious, honest and entertaining and as such have garnered a new subscriber. Keep up the important work my friend.
Thanks Jeremiah!
oh my gosh. first, thank you for getting to the point and not rambling like so many videos out there. I actually really enjoyed your content and felt comfortable taking you at your word. Your humor at the end about deep hatred, hit the dislike twice, THAT was funny! No hatred here, you made it easy to understand and not terrifying at all, thank you and lets see some more!
Thank you so much! Stoked you liked it!!!
Yes thank you 😊
There are a number of very positive things that I could say about this video, however I'm confident that I would merely be unintentionally echoing the various praises of others before me... :(
....but since I've already said this much, I can't resist telling you something that I'm certain you've heard countless times, already:
Your closing statements constitute the classiest, most considerate and (IMHO) most professional presentation ending created by an independent creator on UA-cam.
Much Love and
Full Respect,
Jay
(newly subscribed)
@xALLSTATEx Jay, wow, I’m a little speechless at your comment. Thanks so much! Just wanting to be a fair and helpful voice and it might actually be happening based on comments like yours. I really appreciate your encouragement! Hoping to be helpful in the future to you!
guys please answer quick if you can --- it says to confirm that you are US CITIZEN = you cannot use it as eu citizen .. :/ ? Is there another such easy app that you can use in germany ?
You rock guy. Love the knowledge and dig your presentation of it. Super helpful and fun to watch!
Hey thanks!!
Get Brendan some more subscribers. After this video you know he deserves it.
You’re in the running for best comment of the day
Thank so much for this video! You explain everything so well.
Thank you!!
So I’m new to investing. I appreciate your advice because I just started with Robinhood and I am going to stray away and start with something smaller. I’m eager to learn but definitely overwhelmed with the graphs, and allll the information. I just want my money to grow, I’m 22, so I like to think I’m at a good start. I really appreciate the ending, where you said “do not turn on notifications for me bc I don’t want to interrupt your day” out of all these apps trying to take away our attention, you respect our time and just want us to learn from you freely. Which makes me want to give you my attention bc of you being genuine. I definitely subscribed!
Thanks for your super kind words Niquey! It’s definitely a little overwhelming at first but you’re right, you are off to a great start at only 22. I wish I started in my early 20’s!
Thankyou for making this video, all other beginner videos talk about complex things that aren't easy to understand. This vid was extremely helpful. I also felt smart knowing I had already made an Ancorn account.
Thanks for your kind comment!
I really appreciate you, I thank you for making this video and explaining everything. I was able to understand what u were saying. I will be moving to Acorn asap and I’ll be sharing this video with all my friends and family!
Thanks!

He actually knew the truth about robinhood 🤯
Prices going down?Sweet, everything’s on sale.💰 Credit for your informative content.🤑
Everything’s on sale!
Finally a vid that actually gives beginners Real Info instead of just talking. Thank you!
Thanks Chris!
Im 23 and was intimidated by the concept of investing money, but your video is like a college professors wet dream in terms of how well you are able to explain this topic. Subbed!
Thank you so much!!
Im 19 but let's go lmao
@@sweetsour401 I'm 30 let's fucking go!
@@fernandosepulveda7297 I'm 13 let's go! (Gonna invest 1$ to dabble my feet in)
Never mind I haven't to wait 5 more years
Thank you very much for this information!! I'm 37 and working on my emergency fund and debt but really looking forward to starting investing and was super nervous about picking a platform!
Misty you’re on the road to an awesome destination. Good job handling those two first! Thanks for watching!!
So understanding and how you explain everything, 10/10 finna sub to you fasho fasho🙌🏽🙌🏽💯
Thank you so much Haber!!
Have watched literally 10s of thousands of YT vids over the last 15 years and genuinely only feel compelled to comment approx once per year. Just wanted to say that was awesome and you earned an insta-subscribe. Love your bit at the end about protecting your time and not needing more notifications in life. Looking forward to seeing more from you. Cheers from South Africa
Wow thank you so much for your incredibly kind encouragement Colin!
Tried opening account but seems I can't do so from outside the USA - might be worth mentioning in the vid (unless you have a work around?)
You’re totally right. I wish there was a way to “edit” the current video to add in such a note. I’ll add a line in the description since that is still editable!
Thank you! This video was just what this beginner investor needed to confirm the fact that I was getting ready to set-up an account with Acorn. Thank you again and God bless!
That’s great news Stephanie! Make sure to check out the 2 other videos I’ve made this year about Acorns if you want to learn more!
Great video!!! You were concise and clear and for someone who wants to invest more I love that you broken it down easily. I will definitely tune in for more.
Thanks Ashli!
Simple, straightforward and very informative. You're awesome! +1 subscriber
Heyyyyyy, thanks “Patrick”!
Great video. I just installed M1, Acorns, and Webull and made accounts. I also subscribed after watching this video. I look forward to learning more about investing using your channel. Thank you!
Thank you HAAM! Stoked to have you here!
Excellent, finally someone was able to explain it in a way I can understand 👍
Glad it helped!
I don't usually comment, like ever, but your video was so great and so easy to follow that I had to let you know that. Keep making videos like this because it's helping people like me, a newbee, to make really life impacting decisions seem not so scary. Thanks!
Thanks a ton for these kind words!!
I agree, I know nothing about investing but he is a great teacher.
Thanks for sharing this Brendan. So many people could have used this over the last few weeks. I like your philosophy and the care for personal time outside of the drain of the web and mobile devices. Strong stuff all around. I wish I'd known more about finance when I was younger. I am going to share your advice with some young folks I know. Even if they get a little takeaway and start thinking more about investing now, I'll count it as a win. Keep up the strong work! I look forward to seeing more of your work here.
Wow Chris these are powerfully positive words! Thank you!
Wow Chris these are powerfully positive words! Thank you!!
107 people put "thumbs down" - seriously? Nothing wrong with this video at all. Thanks for your time Brendan. I will share the vid with my sister and we'll both start an Acorn account.
Thanks for watching flans for the encouragement Michael!
It’s just my opinion after all, but people do like to disagree.
You're the best explainer out there. This is my 20th video on the topic and I wish it was my first. Lovely.
Wow thanks!!
"Hit the dislike button twice" :)))) LOL, I loved it :))))
well put - I agree... Brendan is a straight shooter with a rare ability to explain concepts quite adeptly. ...got an Instant sub from me....I know quality when I see it.
My thoughts exactly
@@TeTe-xg8xi thank you!!
Thank you. This was absolutely helpful, Comforting and Encouraging
🤛
This guy is spot on . I panicked with HIMS and AMC and they both went up considerably. Im still doing really well but obviously had things to learn
Hey thanks Mike! Be careful out there.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!! Im excited in to do my first investments !!!
Thank you so much you've clarified so much for me I'm glad I found out about you before I messed up my first start👍
J- that’s so great! I’m really glad I could help a little! This video seems to be a topic that a lot of people want to know more about so I made another video that could be a little helpful too. If you want you can check it out here:

I have watched slews of you tube videos on investing lately. I'm getting older (54) and want to get my money working for me . I just wanted to let you know that at the end of your video i thought to myself, " You know, I like this guy.."
Ha, thanks Rich!! More than likeability, I hope it’s helpful.
@@BrendanEvan very much so.
Brendan thank you! You are exactly what I needed! You explained, informed, and clarified so much for me as a first time investor. You hit all the concerns and offered up an understanding for all the who, what, where, hows, and even why's for a beginning investor. I have been listening to and reading a lot but still had uncertainty of which App to use. I feel confident now that choosing Acorn is the way to go. Glad I clicked on you! I may still use the others just for the free stock, lol.😉
Regina you get the award for the nicest comment of the year! It’s a privilege to be able to be a tiny bit of help along your journey!
@@BrendanEvan
Hello Brendan!! I have to say that it was my very first time coming across your platform! I found your talking points on investing a breath of fresh air and very phenomenal!!!
I do not have any knowledge about investing and watching your presentation certainly helped guide me in choosing Acorns as an investment platform going forward in creating passive income!!!
I enjoyed how simple you explained everything from start to finish!!! And thank you for showing us what we will see once we open up the Acorn APP on a phone!!
Hope you invested in your thumbnail because it's so profitable now.
Bullish on the thumbnail
@@BrendanEvan Hahahahaha. Best answer ever!
I am looking to invest in the stock market with absolutely no prior knowledge, this video is the first I've watched and was so easy to comprehend. I applaud. Thanks for the info!
Awesome, thanks Sabrina!
You're the best. I'm so glad i recently found your channel. Thanks for all that you do!
Wow thank you!!
One of the best reviews out here, I follow the ¨big guys¨ you mentioned... bruh.. you got this, keep it up (subscribed BTW.... LOL)
Wow thanks for that encouragement!! The big guys are big for good reason but there’s also room for newcomers. Stay tuned, lots more stuff coming this year!
29 years old and finally about to start investing been holding back too long. I'm sure I'm gonna regret not doing this sooner 😆 thanks alot good sir!
You’re still early!
Brendan, great insight, brother! Less is more!
Thanks Dr John!
I rewatched. More info on the 2nd viewing - thank you!
I thank you for this video I really appreciate it and it was extremely helpful can’t wait to start and get going on my investments

H! Thanks Alain!
I don’t take comments for granted, and really value your time!
Great Video...Im a beginner and your video really helped alot. Appreciate your honesty and transparency...
Thanks for watching!
Sounds good man. Yeah I’m going to do it.

This is one of the best videos I've ever seen on UA-cam and I watch a lot of videos on here!
Wow thank you!!
@@BrendanEvan You're welcome!
This was actually really understandable. Great video!
Thanks a bunch, that was the goal!!
Thank you for the info. I’m so tired of being behind the 8 ball so to speak. I work 2 jobs to support my family, which I’m fine with but I do t see myself getting ahead. I’ve never invested before, but seeing your video is giving me a light of possibility for myself and my family. Again thank you
Thanks Robert! Keep going!
Hello
Updates? 🥺
Thank you for providing such valuable information to a beginner like me. Watching your video was not at all painful due to how you laid it out and easy to understand language. Thanks to you that I feel comfortable enough to go ahead and start my journey in investment through the Acorn app.
Thank you once again for your time and looking forward to watching all of your videos on investing.
Wow thanks Eddie!
Been thinking about investing for a few months now and I am very proud to say that I Just downloaded acorns as just made my first investment all thanks to you! Thank you so much I will be subscribed and looking forward to your next video. If you can give some tips on what companies you found are best. Thanks again so much take care! :)
Thank you! I like your outro HAHA subscribing! ❤️
Hey thanks!!
Thank you kindly Brendan I really appreciate the information you have provided in your video I know you helped a lot of people all over the world this this video. 🤓
Thanks Ariella!
Wow, this is the most informative video I have ever watched in terms of beginners into investing. The content quality is unmatched with the amount of subscribers you have, you truly deserve more recognition. I turned 18 yesterday, and I’m looking forward into getting a credit card and starting my first ever investment profile through acorns, thank you so much for this! Have a blessed day ❤️
Awesome! Thanks a bunch Jhon!
Wow thanks for the all the info, I had so many questions and you have provided many answer. Great video.
🙌
WOW! Amazing true. Exactly what happened with me. Thanks
The stock market is constantly changing leaving traders perplexed and riddled about what to do, who recalls last year around this same period anyone who invested heavily on either crypto or Ev stocks was probably laughing his or her way through last year. All I can say is invest! Invest! Invest! Put in your monies into anything the professionals are putting you on.
Update: I’ve done some research and decided I’d recommend Freetrade for EU/UK beginners!
Here’s a well done video in how to get started! ua-cam.com/video/FIpgYagc94s/v-deo.html
Thanks for the advice that app looks a whole lot easier than the other one especially cuz I'm a starting investor
Awesome, Investor Ryan! That’s got a nice ring to it.
Very helpful, you have my subscription. Very humble. Very enjoyable and sincere. Good job
Thank you!!
Thank you so much! The wisdom you have to explain those information in depth!
You saved me😊
Thanks Ruth! So glad it was helpful!
The way this aged SO WELL
I really like your approach. I been reading and watching a lot of different information on investment and I think is always important to make it something more approachable to the general public. I like that you offered a lot of insight for the different apps, and I hope I can find some "boring" math on some of your other content. I'm 25 and from Mexico, and really appreciate people like you that really enjoy what they are doing :) Keep it up!
Thanks a bunch Pablo!
Phenomenal video I wish I didn’t wait this long to start
Thanks! I think we all feel that way. You’ve got the ball rolling now and that’s the important thing!
