#9 ​Angela asks: Hi Heather, Happy new year! I’m a big fan of yours and have been following you for a while. I bought all your three books. I would like to open a stocks and shares ISA for myself and two children aged 16 & 14 but I don’t know where to start due to fear of risk. I want to invest 15% of my income in stocks and also considering real estate. I have seen some recommendations like Vanguard or Hargreaves Lansdowne but I’m clueless on what to go for. I am a nurse and the only debt I have is a repayment mortgage. I just finished paying off credit card debt. I saw your post on Malawi Queens. Please help. Thank you My name’s Angela by the way.
