Jermaine also explains why IPOs shouldn’t be your entire investment strategy, how to think about stocks as ownership in real businesses, and why your investment choices should be connected to your goals.Plus, Jermaine shares how his faith shapes the way he thinks about money, stewardship, multiplication and building wealth — and why growing your resources can be about much more than simply becoming rich.In this episode:• How to start investing with a small amount of money• Investing in Jamaica and opportunities people may be overlooking• Why buying IPOs alone isn’t an investment strategy• How to evaluate stocks and the businesses behind them• Building wealth through consistency instead of chasing one big win• Why your goals should determine how you invest• Jamaican vs international investment opportunities• Faith, stewardship and making your money multiply• The lessons behind going from a negative net worth to building wealthWhether you’re learning how to invest for the first time or you’ve already started and want to become more intentional about building your portfolio, this conversation will help you think differently about what you have, where you put it and how you grow it.___________________FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM: Follow Learn Grow Invest: https://www.instagram.com/learngrowinvest/?hl=enLearn to Start Investing: https://0jpktn.s.gy/learngrowinvestFollow Shannelle James-Harris: https://www.instagram.com/shannellejharris/?hl=enFollow Koined Insights: https://www.instagram.com/koinedinsightspod/?hl=en_______________________________________________________________________ EPISODE LINKS: Symptai Consulting: https://www.instagram.com/symptaicons...
