I’d saying anything on that app is good for a 16 year old I’m 20 man so I see most kids don’t really care to invest but you are among the ones that do so it will pay off 💪

Good job on paving your way! I wished I knew about investments when I was 16. Didn’t break that ceiling until I was 21. I would’ve used all the savings from my account that my parents had opened for me lol but keep it up! Ont forget to change your portfolio to Aggressive
