I'm brand spanking new to investing having read a couple of books on the subject and I came up with a couple of questions that I'm hoping could be answered here.
For those of you who use Stash is it a good starting point?
If investing in stocks I hear the Dow J and S&P 500 are good places to invest in since they seem to always recover after a correction or bear market. Is that true? Is there better?
If I was going to start investing on my own without a financial advisor or brokerage firm how do I go about that if it's even possible? And if not what's a good firm/organization to minimize fees. (Currently investing with creative planning)
Should I wait for a bear market or correction to start going into the market and buy stocks for cheaper to gain a profit? Should I start now regardless because it's not clear when one of those will happen?
And the last one: I've heard from numerous people that gold/silver and cryptocurrency are either not worth it's value or in the case for cryptocurrency too volatile is there a good substitute?
Again I'm brand new and any input would be amazing I'm just trying to wrap my head around this seemingly high skill ceiling in investing smartly
