For nearly everyone, that should include a retirement goal. You should set a rough plan for what age you want to retire and how much money you wish to retire.
Once your goals are set and you have a clear idea of how much you want to invest, it’s time to decide how involved you want to be in the investing process.
If you want to be an active investor of stocks, choosing a platform with free stock trading like Robinhood or Webull, or even Charles Schwab would be good options.
