Decide the Purpose and Timeframe of the Account
When starting to invest, it is crucial to determine the purpose and timeframe of the investment account. Whether saving for retirement, college, or other goals, understanding the account's objectives is essential. It is advised not to invest money needed in the short term or that cannot be risked. Differentiating between retirement and non-retirement accounts like traditional or Roth IRAs helps in aligning investments with specific goals and potential tax benefits.
