Hey all! Wanted to see how your investing journeys are going? Any new wins? Any questions? I've set up new categories and reorganized some others. Can't wait to hear from you!

I just answered a question in the group about buying gold and silver etc. Seems many people are interested in this. Can you tell me why you are interested? What haven't you bought it in the past? What are your biggest issues, obstacles and concerns regarding gold? What are some other questions you would like to know about this topic?

I recently signed up for a course at my local community college called: Stocks Bonds, Investing: Oh my! I'm gaining a lot of insights from the Smart Start Investing community and this class -- I like to handle my own finances. I'll acquire enough knowledge to understand what actions to take. I just viewed Nicole and Nadia's video on YouTube: (If We Started Investing In 2026, This Is What We Would Do!). Fantastic as usual. They always remind me that I don't have to hand over investing to someone else when I can manage it myself.

if you haven’t already done so, checkout this website: Investopedia. It has a wealth of information. I subscribed a few weeks ago and love receiving the terms of the day and investment articles.

What is your take on gold, silver and precious metals? Is it profitable and worth investing? How is it represented as a stock, bond, etf, mutual fund etc? Thanks
