In the opening papragraph she mentions; Firstly make sure you have a roof over your head, secondly, that your mortgage is paid, or covered by your job, thirdly, that you have a pension. Then, and only then, if you have some disposable income that you are happy to throw away, think about investing on the stock market. Personally, I just call it gambling. In Russia they have a saying: “He who takes no risks will not drink Champagne.” That’s fine by me. I’ll stick to the tapwater.
