Impulsive spender turned investor

First off, the negative reviews this app has received are ridiculous. Most of them are based off of the personal information you have to give, but youre opening an investment account so what do you expect? Ive lost patience for the friends of mine who wont give this app a chance because of their demeaning connotation associated with "app." This is the simplest way for a middle-waged millenial, such as myself, to start putting aside money for my future. I didnt have the initial capital to start off with a brokerage account. Being able to make small investments into well-diversified portfolios allows me to feel confident and excited about stashing. I now keep a very small amount of money in my savings account and put most into my stash account, along with additional deposits every paycheck. Ive gotten 5.05% return at this point, which is much better than any savings account Ive ever had.
I do wish that the buying and selling happened more quickly but on the flip side, the delay on withdrawing funds almost forces me to keep my money in my stash account. Ive always been an impulsive spender so this has been a huge benefit for my saving habits. I highly recommend this to everyone! Especially to all my millenial homies who dont have anything put away or only have money in a savings account that is giving you minimal return. With enough time, youre sure to make money with stocks and now you can start investing as small as youd like.
