Share investing is a popular method of growing wealth. Investing in the stock market, buying shares in listed companies, has been fairly reliable at beating returns on cash held in savings accounts historically. When done right and in good market conditions, investments can be grown quite quickly. We are heavily invested in the stock market ourselves and here we will share our own experiences and insights in share investing along with the latest market news. Please note we are not a share advisory or tipping service and do not advise you to follow any trades we ourselves make.

Always do your own research and consult a professional before making investments.
