I often hear from my elders that those who work hard, suffer and work patiently today have a very happy future. So I think that instead of increasing the standard of living today, it should be used for saving and investing. So that we can ensure a beautiful future. So my personal opinion is to invest. Because if you want to do something productive in life, you must invest. There is no other honest means or way to grow in life except investment.

Yes and no. The thing is that each investor's case is individual. In general, we all imagine that an investor is, in a broad sense, a person with tens of thousands of dollars. And that he multiplies it constantly. But in reality, there are plenty of investors who do not have the opportunity to start with large sums and invest several hundred bucks at first. And even if such a guy multiplies them successfully by getting into the bull market, the profit will also be in the amount of several hundred dollars. And at this time, there are professions where they earn several thousand dollars at once. And let in the first example the money comes multiplying, and in the second adding up, but the initial deposit should be as large as possible so that the investor overtakes the income of an ordinary specialist, an office worker.

You are right about the diversity of investors because there are investors with many different budgets and all of them have different expectations. The increase in the amount of investment depends on economic power. The amounts people allocate to invest and their expectations from these investments may be different. As in your example, making a profit from a small amount is not the same as making a profit from a large amount. Having the power to invest a large amount also provides advantages in many ways.

What should be noted is to analyze well when investing and not to forget that there are risks.
