Announcer (00:02):

I love this podcast because it crushes your dreams of getting rich quick. They actually got me into reading stats for anything you’re tuned in to the Investing for Beginners podcast led by Andrew Sather and Dave Ahern with a step-by-step premium investing guide for beginners; your path to financial freedom starts now.

Dave (00:33):

All right, folks, welcome to Investing for Beginners podcast tonight. Andrew and I are going to read a great list of questions we’ve gotten recently. So I’m going to go ahead and turn it over to my friend, Andrew. And he’s going to read the first question to us.

Andrew (00:46):

Yeah. Thanks, Dave. So this first question comes from John King. He says, hi, Dave, I love the podcast. And I’ve been binge-listening to all of them this past month. I have a question about dollar-cost averaging over a very long timeframe. About a year ago, I researched and bought about ten dividend-paying stocks. I have been dripping into each position I own is small and only has about five shares of each. I run a vegetable farm, and with that family and other expenses, I never have large sums of money to put into stocks. I’ve heard you guys talk about dollar-cost averaging over one year. Would it be okay to add monthly to stock over 30 years as long as the company is in good shape? Keep up the great work. Thanks.

Dave (01:31):

Well, in a word. Yes. So I guess that is the easy answer. So let’s dive into this just a little bit. First of all, Don, thank you for reaching out and kudos to you to stay taking this step and diving in and embracing this with both arms.
