On the show today, I am going to explain what a brokerage account is and how to open one.

There are three different ways to start investing in the stock market:

1. Through a Financial Planner or Financial Advisor
2. A Self-Directed Brokerage Account
3. A Robo-Advisor

Since it's pretty self-explanatory on how to get set up with a financial advisor, the purpose of this episode is to show you how to open up a self-directed brokerage account and/or how to get started with a robo-advisor.

By the end of this episode, you will have a better understanding of how each works, which will help you make your decision on which is best for your investment style!
