#37: I don't have enough money to max out my Roth IRA this year.

BUT I know that everything I invest will add up - even if its $10 a month

In this episode I outline 5 reasons to invest EVEN if you have little money

1. Because you can. Thanks to 'fractional shares' you can buy $10 of an investment at a time
2. Starting when you have little money allows you to build the CORRECT investing habits
3. Because it's not all in or all out
4. Because of, hello!, compound interest. (its the 8th wonder of the world)
5. Because amiga, investors look like you and me. Mujeres. Poderosas. Latinas. It's time to invest. No more excuses.

At the end of the episode, I share with you 3 ways to get started with investing.

Amiga, welcome to your investor era. We're waiting for ya. See you in the show!
