I'm 37 and a few months ago I watched one of your videos which gave me the confidence to finally dip my toes into investing, all I can say is thank you for putting out easy to understand information on the topic!
@
This was sooooo helpful for my current 61 year old mindset.
Thank you ๐Ÿ™
@
Just want to say I appreciate your content and what you do for normal people who don't have a clue what they are doing. I'm going to share this with my family members who are really missing out, hopefully they will listen to your well articulated video and feel more comfortable about the scary unknown world of investing.
@
I'm 23 years old, and I believe this is my best alternative.
@
What a time to post this. Perfect to calm those nerves. Great content as always. ๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿค›

I had this conversation yesterday morning with my daughter (36yo) she has some income that has built up in her ISA. โ€œ is the market going to go down Dadโ€. Yes probably and a bit more tomorrow (today) but i said you have 20/25 years before you will be looking at using the money..just close your eyes and investโ€ฆโ€ฆtime in the market,not timing the market.

Algo displays, I click, I like, I watch.

Hi Damo!
@
Absolutely love your content and your ability to simplify the complex.

Not too late for 48 year old me, but your content is guaranteed to secure my kids with the knowledge I wish I had earlier.

Thank you.
@
Never too old. Right now with a dip it might be a good time to start.
@
I rarely comment on YouTube. Your message, content, editing and overall production is second to none. I follow a lot of the UK โ€˜fin-influencers/educatorsโ€™ (a few US ones) and youโ€™re my favourite.

I genuinely get excited to watch and listen to your content. Credit to you and your team.

P.S - If you could get Morgan Housel on your podcast, thatโ€™d be sick
@
This is probably the most important personal investment video/tutorial ever made. Period. Well done Damien.
@
I'm 40 and I feel like I'm 10 years too late. Just had cash in a current account doing nothing
@
Started last year at 49 on the back of viewing one of Damien's videos. Also started my youngest son on a JISA.
@
I started a couple of years ago and I'm nearly 69 and its definitely never too late to start. Always good content
@
Sound Advice. I'm have some long term investments in ISA's and SIPP products. The bulk of my portfolio growth is from Stock and Options trading. Damien was one of the first Financial Content creators I subbed to when I got started several years back and nobody delivers the basics facts better. 10/10. Gold star content.
@
Iโ€™m 41 and only have a couple of grand in and was thinking shit. Am I too late?!?!? I needed to hear this, itโ€™s given me some hope lol!
@
Someone in a closed Telegram chat said, โ€œCameron Solanโ€™s work isnโ€™t about escaping the systemโ€“ itโ€™s about never triggering it.โ€ That line stuck with me.
@
Started at 40, now 53, thereโ€™s a reason why we are not taught this at schools. Once you work out the maths and the penny drops, you have to then ask why, why being why are we not taught this. If your 25ish and leaning this stuff, how lucky are you.
