A Smart Story
*"The Man Who Started with $5"*
There was a young man named *James*. At the age of 20, he worked part-time and only had an extra $5 at the end of each week.
Instead of spending it, he decided to invest it in the stock market by buying fractional shares of large companies.
Every week, he only invested $5. People laughed at him, saying: "What are you going to do with those five dollars?"
But James continued. For 10 years, without stopping.
He read, learned, and avoided impulsiveness. In 10 years, his portfolio grew to over *$18,000* just from simple and regular investing.
Today, he is a financial advisor, and he always says:
*"It doesn't matter the amount; what matters is the habit."*
---
*The lesson?*
Successful investing doesn't require a large amount… it requires patience, consistency, and knowledge.
