About Investing Explained
Investing Explained helps people who are new to investing learn the basics in simple words.
What we do
We show real numbers from the past and explain how the math works.
We explain each new word when it comes up.
What we don't do
We don't tell anyone what to buy.
We don't pick stocks or funds, and we don't rank or rate them.
We don't give advice for one person. Everything here is general education, the same for everyone.
Who it's for
Adults (18 or older) who are just starting to learn about investing.
How we check our numbers
Every real number has a source and a date.
We check market numbers at least every three months and IRS numbers every year.
Our sources page lists every source. Our "How we get the numbers" page shows the math.
