How to Invest in Mutual Funds - Beginner Series Part One

I’ve decided to start a whole series on the world of mutual fund investing. I see many people there asking how to invest in mutual funds, so here’s the first part in a series to answer that question. Today, we’ll start at square one by looking at the basics of what a mutual fund actually is.

While there are many sites out there that spout out information about investing, I’m finding a disturbing increasing amount of sites that are spreading incorrect and potentially financially hazardous “tips” out there like the gospel. It’s my goal to teach you about mutual fund investing throughout this series. I hope you enjoy it and find it a worthwhile venture.

By the way, I’d encourage to join the revised Financial Rebel newsletter feed. You’ll get quick updates when we add something important to the site and you’ll get commentary and information that might not be published.

ABOUT FINANCIAL REBEL

My name is Jason Martin and this is my investment blog. Back in Jr. High School I fell in love with an electrical wiring company's stock on Wall Street. After following the stock daily in the papers—the Internet wasn't around back then—I sent them a letter and they sent me back all sorts of wonderful information about their company.

In High School, we had a stock market contest. All the kids were picking companies that made stuff they consumed. When I announced my beloved company, I was laughed at. Little did they know that my company was going to be the subject of a takeover soon.

Long story short, I won the contest and have made money in the stock market, through real estate investing and so forth. If you're looking for someone to tell you how to buy and hold $300 stocks for an eternity or someone who will pump up garbage micro-cent stocks, I'm not your man.

I hope you enjoy Financial Rebel. If you do, please leave your comments and share this site with those you know.
