The Eejit’s Guide: What You Can Do Today

I know I’m not the only one who has struggled—whether academically, financially, or just in figuring out what to do next. That’s why I started sharing what I’ve learned about investing. No fancy jargon, no unrealistic promises—just simple, practical advice from someone who’s been there.

If I, someone who failed university on the first attempt and barely knew what a stock was a few years ago, can start building financial stability, then so can you. The key is to start. Educate yourself, invest wisely, and learn from your mistakes instead of being afraid of them.

Failure at university taught me resilience. Investing taught me discipline. And now, I’m using those lessons to carve out a better future—not just for myself and my family, but for anyone willing to listen. If an eejit like me can do it, so can you.

So, where do you start? Here are a few simple steps:

Learn the Basics – Read up on investing, personal finance, and money management.

Start Small – Even if it’s just a few pounds a month, getting into the habit of investing is more important than the amount.

Think Long-Term – Investing isn’t a get-rich-quick scheme. The goal is to build wealth over time.

Don’t Fear Failure – You’ll make mistakes, but that’s part of the process. Learn from them and move forward.
