opening an investment account - good product to keep it simple?

Post by tense-eye-man »

hi,

the wonderwife and I are already have an emergency fund and have maxed out on NISA/JnrNISA/Ideco, we don't have a lot left over but we're looking to open an investment account with rakuten to put any extra we do come up with into...(might try to increase income to this end, maybe little bit of 副業 fukugyouu side-hussle...)

Does anyone have any thoughts on what products to go for? Looking to keep it simple, index fund to pay into steadily.....

Thanks!
