I am thinking of investing a sum of money monthly, but I am not sure where I should start. What are some recommendations for me to start investing?

I would recommend investing 50% in a market portfolio like S&P500 ETF as it historically yields 10% return and has a general upward trend. Another 50% can be other individual stocks that you like and see a potential of 10% return. Diversification is always important. There is no reward for bearing unnecessary risks. 

Accumulate once every 3 months and put it into a S&P 500 ETF quarterly! The historical returns are 10% and I would say it is much better than saving bonds​​.

Look into investing in S&P 500 ETFs. If you are young, compound interest would work greatly in your favour if you invest in it regularly and realise your earnings 30-40 yrs later. Think far ahead :)

Before you start investing, it will be best to understand your objective. Here are some questions to help you:

1. What is your capital?

2. How will you want to invest your capital? E.g. lump sum or an amount on a regular basis

3. How long will you want to stay invested? E.g. 10 years

4. What is your risk appetite? E.g. How do you feel about short-term volatility?

5. What is your objective for investing?

By understanding yourself, you will be able to determine the type of assets that suits you. Speak with a profesional when in need to gain insights on how to grow your wewalth.
