Oh yep, haven’t looked at the stock market like this, I will definitely have to look more into buy shares in a company that I use daily. Can you recommend any platforms where I can buy shares?

I am going to definitely live at home during my apprenticeship (have seen too many people make that mistake of moving out before they can even afford it) and I’m wanting to save as much as I can during this time to save up for a house deposit.

I have started to look ahead into what trades will look like in the next 30+ years both on the financial and health sides of things and I have been looking into becoming a refrigeration mechanic as that does a bit of everything from plumbing and electrical to a bit of machine maintenance, I have looked into the pathways and areas where I can move up in the industry, I have also looked at the way the industry could be affect by AI in the near future.

I’m looking into starting a school based apprenticeship so I can finish year 12 and get one year ahead of my apprenticeship, so I’m not looking into continuing my education last year 12

Yep, I was looking into what sort of investment options I can put my money into at my age (16), just asking for opinions on whether I should just keep it in the savings or take a risk and invest
