I love acorns. I have only had an account for one year but I have seen a 21% return on investment that is compounding every day. Acorns is robo investing and low risk. However, you still need to do your homework and determine how aggressive you want to be.
You will need your address, social security number, and work information in order to set up an account. This is needed because you have to pay taxes on any capital gains (this is the amount over what you invest). Sign up through my link and receive $5 in your account after your first deposit. Check it out for yourself Acorns.
If you do not have a self-managed brokerage account, check out TD Ameritrade. It is one of my favorites. I have own and look at it everyday. It has an easy to use app and great educational resources.
Because this account may earn capital gains, you will need to provide your address, social security number, and work information in order to set up the account. I do not get anything for you setting up an account with TD Ameritrade. I just love them. Check it out TD Ameritrade.
