In our final SkimmU course, we teamed up with Farnoosh Torabi, financial author and host of the “So Money” podcast to talk investing basics. Check out the pre-coursework, then watch the recording above.

Investing is for everyone.
The sooner you start, the more time your money has to grow.
All investing involves some risk. But NOT investing is risky, too. Thanks, inflation.
Diversifying your portfolio (aka investing in a bunch of different kinds of investments) can help you spread out your risk.
If you're focused on long-term investing goals, try to stay calm when the market freaks out.
