✨ Investing when you’re under 18:

From Lacey: This is mostly for crowdfunding purposes but you can essentially ask your parents to open a custodial investment account on your behalf. This means they essentially "manage" your investments but you are able to start investing and your investment trust is the owner of the shares you buy in a company! Super exciting stuff.
