Hello All,
Thanks for letting me join the forum.
Here is a bit about myself. Just turned 32, married with 3 kids and after 4 months of reading multiple blogs and convincing my wife that I can do this without losing it all, I have started off with a $100 every 2 week budget.
Made my first purchases last week, 2 shares of T and 6 shares of ORI. Now just trying to narrow down what 10 stocks I want to hold as a base for my long term portfolio. Seems there are a ton of options that fit the criteria I have finally settled on.
The one question that has been giving me the most trouble is if it is better to save up the money to buy one share of a stock like JNJ or to buy multiple shares of a stock like KO or T.
I look forward to lurking the threads and learning from those who are a bit farther along in the process than I am.
