<prompt> Human: Hi all, did a little bit of reading but i dont know which direction to go. currently, i have about 300 in my bank account with no expenses. Im in college and with no pressure and expenses so I would like to invest and learn about the stock market early on. I would ideally like to invest in the stock market but the only thing that I could do is use Ally invest due to the low funds. Ive learnt from my many mistakes to read and learn more before I invest. so, what tips would you give a college student. I know that bonds will make you money but i know Im too impatient and ambitious for the slow returns. I also know that I can lose all the money or gain some and I am ready for any and all risks.Assistant: IMO it wont be worth it for you to invest a small amount like that. Pile up your emergency fund as much as you can while youre in college and stay debt free. When youve secured a full time job after you graduate, then start doing your investments. Human: Ok, my point if view is somewhat different. I would like to invest now and learn from my failures so when i do make more money, i know how to handle it and invest it.  <response>: Open an account on Robinhood and buy some shares of an sp500 index fund.
