In today’s edition of “Ask A Fool” Austin answers a question from Twitter about a good investing plans for college kids. Austin thinks the most important thing that a college age investor can do today is to simply develop the habit on investing. At this stage in the game he believes it’s more important to simply be invested than anything else. Ingraining some sort of regular saving habit and parking it in a group of passive index funds is an easy way to start, and is the same technique he used in college. From there students can pull out and invest in individual securities as needed, while continuing the regular pattern of saving and parking money.
