As tax season starts to ramp up, many people will be coming into perhaps some long awaited money. Hopefully you haven’t already decided to purchase something that will not improve your overall financial well being.  Instead you are primed to start making some solid financial investments for 2017. Even if that is not the case for you, and you are just ready to tackle your financial future that is fantastic idea. If you are thinking along those lines, you have come to the right place. I have consolidated a list of links to blogs I have written on three online investment services.  They allow you to invest in the stock market in some pretty different and unique ways.  All of which can serve you well. These services provide very good platforms for any level investor looking to put their money to work for them!

Here are the services that you can use to invest and a brief synopsis of each one. Based on the synopsis, if this interests you, click on the link to the right to learn more.

Acorns – Acorns Investing

Speaking of starting small, think of how a small acorn can grow into a big tree. For this company, that small acorn is your pocket change. Acorns allows you to invest your spare change into a diversified index portfolio which could grow into that big “money” tree. Yes, your spare change! You link the credit/debit cards which you make your purchases on. In turn, they will be rounded up to the nearest whole dollar. That change will purchase shares in a portfolio you select automatically when your change has accumulated to $5 or more.

Loyal3 FolioFirst – What Is Loyal3? => FolioFirst

You are allowed to make one time purchases or you can setup recurring transactions to purchase shares of stocks.

Motif Investing – Motif Investing

Motif Investing is very unique in how they allow you to build a custom or themed portfolio of stocks of the latest trending ideas. You can chose up to 30 individual stocks into what is called a motif, and then purchase what’s in for as little as $250 and $9.95 commission per trade. Just imagine, you can have the acronym “FANG” F-Facebook, A-Amazon, N-Netflix, and G-Google motif. You can purchase it in fractional or whole shares, and giving the stocks within the motif the weighted percentage you choose each to have.

In Closing

Well, there you have it folks, the big three for you to choose to put some or all your money in one, two, or each of the three. As a matter of fact, I personally use all three services as they each give me an fantastic opportunity to shape my financial well being in their own special way.
