Hello, I'm a college student very new to stocks. I'm trying to make money through investments for a used car in a couple years, but without risking a ton of money.
Currently, I'm using the Acorns app on a moderate profile. I appreciate it for its user-friendly and relatively low-risk format. It's the only stock trading I'm comfortable with as a beginner.
However, I don't want to have to wait 10 years to have a couple thousand dollars in my account. So what I've been doing is adding a LOT of one-time investments to the account (think several hundred dollars at a time, deducted from my paychecks). If I keep doing this, is it possible to make large returns in a few years, or do I really have to add a lot of time (a decade or more) to the equation in order to get big returns?
