What is a Share?

Welcome to another episode of the How To Money podcast! Join Kate and Susan as they take on the task of demystifying the confusing world of money, and help kick-start your financial education journey. In today’s episode we chat about shares, more specifically what they are, why do people buy them, how you can get started and a few of the key benefits and risks when getting started with shares. Please keep in mind that it’s a huge topic - one that many people spend their entire life learning about, so please do your own research before going shopping for shares! As always, check out the ASIC Moneysmart website for more information, and the ASX Free Online Share Essentials Course.
