24. How To Make Money Through Investing: Dividends, Share Prices, And Why The Stock Market Goes Up
How do people make money by investing? Why do stocks go up? Aren't they just numbers on a screen?
These may seem like basic questions, but we never get told the answer! Perhaps this is why fewer than 5% of people in the UK have a Stocks and Shares ISA - because investing can seem incredibly risky when you don't understand where your profits come from.
So, understanding what drives an investor's profit is what today's podcast is all about!
