Hi Amanda :)

Great to hear you’re getting started.

Unfortunately nobody here can give you personal advice on where to invest your money. But a great place to start is on the Invest page which lists the most popular investment options among the Pearler community: https://pearler.com/explore/invest/au-shares

This should give you plenty of ideas on where to begin, where you can click on any of the shares for more information. You’ll notice many of the most popular options have a couple of things in common: they’re diversified funds and have low management fees. These are two important factors which help reduce long term risk and improve our odds as long term investors.

Hope that helps for now.
