An easy and cost-efficient saving vehicle. EasyEquities shall provide…

Rhyming is not everyone’s strength, especially not one of mine. However, there is something that everyone can do and that’s saving money.

Seeing that July is the month of saving, should you not jump on the savings bandwagon and make a resolution that you are going to put some money away for a rainy day in the future? A good old-fashioned piggybank might do the trick, but don’t you think that it’s a bit outdated? These days it’s just as easy to invest your money in equities. Plus there’s the benefit of this little thing called compound interest. (Jokes. It’s not that little.)Compound interest is the secret weapon that has played a significant role in pushing piggybanks out of the savings arena. And EasyEquities is leading the movement that’s making the piggybank obsolete.

We may be creating a “savings revolution”, but just how are we doing it? And what makes it so super EASY??

  • Let’s start with the easy online stuff. The website provides everything that you will need as a first time investor. Having just revamped the platform, navigating it just became even easier, proving that easy has no limits.
  • Even if you have never bought shares in your life, you can see how easy it is by checking out the EasyEquities step-by-step videos that detail why and how to invest with EasyEquities.

There are also plenty of resources available to help you make the wisest investment decisions.

For some, the best way to learn something is to watch and listen. HotStocks is a TV show that airs daily on CNBC Africa (Dstv 410) at 8am and 8pm.  This show provides a helping hand for investors at all levels. It also gives you peace of mind knowing that an expert in the financial world like Paul Theron is behind the ideas that are being debated. So next time you’re sitting on the couch and channel surfing, flick through to Hotstocks and learn something new!

EasyEquities investors also have access to a hand-picked selection of smart traders, who share their stock picks and their thinking to guide you in your decisions until you have the confidence to go it alone.
