Investing in shares just got easier and WAY cheaper. Got R10?
The Money Show’s Bruce Whitfield interviewed Charles Savage, CEO at Purple Group Limited, owner of EasyEquities.
Minimums exclude about 95% of the market. We needed to abandon them…
Charles Savage, CEO - Purple Group Limited
You’ve got to invest a minimum of 15% of your income… if you’re in your 20s… If you’re old, then 15% won’t cut it… The longer you’ve got the less you need. Compound interest will deliver extraordinary results over time…
Charles Savage, CEO - Purple Group Limited
The key to getting started is to get started! … If you don’t understand anything… make a small investment… as you learn more, you can ratchet it up…
Charles Savage, CEO - Purple Group Limited
You can buy R1 of a stock [on EasyEquities]. The minimum is one cent! … R5 is half the price of a Coke! …
Charles Savage, CEO - Purple Group Limited
My youngest daughter is 12. She started investing using EasyEquities when she was 6… She talks intelligently about investing and the stocks she owns… She owns R5 or this and R10 of that… These kids are going to be wealthy beyond their wildest dreams!
Charles Savage, CEO - Purple Group Limited
My kids are savers, not spenders. In fact, they’re investors… When they get R10, they’re thinking about how to invest half of it…
Charles Savage, CEO - Purple Group Limited
