Today is the day that I actually make my first investments. I have spent months learning how to do this, working on my mindset, building a budget, setting goals, understanding ETFs, and choosing an investment platform. But I haven't actually put any money into the market yet, until now.

Hello, and welcome back to Get Started Investing, a show that helps you make the most of your money. I'm Jess, and in this series, I'm getting invested from scratch. Today's the day I actually take that next step and put my money where my mouth is. Bryce and Alec are gonna join me. I'll be walking them through exactly where I'm at, what I'm investing in, how much, and they actually have no idea what I've gone with, so I'm very, very [laughs] keen to see what they actually think. But before we get into it, very exciting announcement. Australia's biggest investing festival is back. FinFest is gonna be at Carriageworks on the 24th of October. We're gonna show you that finance does not have to be boring. You're gonna hear from the best speakers in the country, plus it's gonna be entertainment, food, and the drinks will be flowing. A massive thank you to our FinFest sponsor, Betashares, and you guys can register for t- tickets at the link in the show notes, or if you're watching on YouTube, in the description
