In January 2022 I made a decision to start investing $5 a day into the stock market and into crypto to see if you could grow a portfolio with only investing $5 daily. After 2 years of consistently investing, today I bring you my results as of January 2024!

✨ The Challenge: In January 2022, I embarked on a unique financial adventure – investing just $5 every day. This experiment aimed to demonstrate the power of small, consistent investments over time.

💡 The Inspiration: The idea struck me as I sipped my daily Starbucks. What if, instead of spending on coffee, I invested that amount daily? This thought was the seed for my $5 daily investment challenge.

📊 The Approach: I diversified my approach – half into the U.S. stock market and half into cryptocurrency, particularly Ethereum, to explore different investment avenues.

📈 Stock Market Strategy: I chose VOO, an ETF representing the S&P 500, allowing a diversified portfolio in top U.S. companies without the risk of single-stock investments.

💰 Crypto Choice: Ethereum was my crypto pick, a deviation from the popular Bitcoin, to add variety to my portfolio.

🧮 Calculating Investments: Addressing the non-trading days, I adjusted my investment strategy to ensure a consistent $5 daily investment equivalent throughout the year.

🔍 Platforms Used: I started with Robinhood but also recommend WeBull for its high interest on uninvested cash, enhancing the investment strategy.

📅 Results and Reflections: I share detailed results of my investments, including the number of shares accumulated, market value, average cost, and total returns in both stock and crypto investments.

💭 Personal Thoughts: Reflecting on the lack of financial education in schools, I emphasize the importance and impact of starting to invest early.

🔥 Join the Challenge!: I invite you to start your own $5 daily investment journey and share your progress for mutual learning and encouragement.
