Acorns on The Ben Shapiro Show

Transcript

First, a lot of people think that investing is only for rich people. This is a dumb idea. It turns out that everyone thinks that you have to have everything figured out before you start investing. You need, like, a finance degree or a gigantic amount of money, or you need to monitor the markets all day long like you're in Wall Street. Well, because of that, a lot of people delay investing for years, and that's one reason why apps like Acorns have become so useful. Acorns is a financial wellness app designed to make investing feel much more approachable. The idea is simply helping people start building healthier financial habits over time. One thing Acorns does very well is making the process feel manageable. You can sign up in minutes, connect your cards, automatically invest spare change through their roundups feature, where everyday purchases get rounded up and the difference gets invested automatically. Acorns also lets users set up recurring investments starting at just a few bucks and choose from diversified portfolios based on different goals and risk preferences.
