You don't need $10,000 to start investing.
You need a plan for the $50 you already have.
Most investing advice is written for people who already have money. This one isn't. It's organised by how much you actually have — and it tells you exactly what to do at each stage.

- Published by HarperCollins
- Written for absolute beginners
- No account or app required to start
If you've opened an investing app and closed it again, this is why.
It isn't that you're bad with money. It's that every guide starts three steps ahead of where you are.
- You're told to "just buy index funds" — but not which account to open, or what the forms are asking.
- Every example assumes a $5,000 starting balance. You have $80 and you'd like it to become something.
- The free advice online is either a 40-minute video that never gets to the point, or someone selling you a course.
- You've been meaning to "sort this out" for two years. The account still isn't open.
The gap isn't information. It's sequence. Knowing what to do first, at the amount you actually have, with the next step waiting when you get there.
It's organised by how much you have — not by what's interesting.
Nancy Dunnan's How to Invest $50–$5,000 does something almost no other beginner's book does: it splits the journey into stages, and gives you a different answer at each one. What's right for $50 is genuinely different from what's right for $2,000, and the book says so plainly.
Get the foundation right
Where small amounts should actually sit, why a cash buffer comes before anything else, and the accounts that don't punish you for a low balance.
Make the first purchase
Opening a brokerage account, what the paperwork means, and buying something small enough that a beginner's mistake costs you very little.
Build an actual portfolio
Spreading risk across more than one thing, what to do when a holding drifts, and the review rhythm that keeps you from panic-selling.
The book tells you what to do. The Kit is what gets it done.
Here's the honest problem with buying a good book: most people read it, feel motivated, and then don't act. The information was never the bottleneck — the blank page after it was.
So we built the missing half. Every tool in the Starter Kit exists to remove one specific place where beginners stall:
- You don't know which brokerage to pick → the Brokerage Comparison Sheet sets out the cost lines that decide what a broker really charges, with a grid you fill in yourself and the questions to ask. We take no commission from any of them.
- You read it but never wrote anything down → the Companion Workbook turns each chapter into a decision with your own numbers in it.
- You don't know what "expense ratio" means and you're embarrassed to ask → the Jargon Decoder, 152 terms, ordered by when you'll actually meet them.
- You start and then drift → the 12-Month Tracker and the 90-Day Roadmap give you a dated sequence instead of good intentions.

Questions worth asking first
Is this financial advice?
No. It's education. The book explains how different types of investment work and gives a general framework for beginners; the Kit's tools help you organise your own thinking. Nothing here recommends a specific security, fund or brokerage, and nobody here knows your circumstances. For advice specific to your situation, speak to a licensed adviser in your country.
Will I make money?
We can't tell you that, and you should be sceptical of anyone who says otherwise. Investing carries risk, including losing money you put in. What this Kit offers is a clear, staged explanation of how investing works and a process for getting started deliberately rather than randomly. That's the whole promise.
What does shipping cost?
Nothing, anywhere in the world. Every physical order ships free to every country we serve. There is no minimum, no threshold and no shipping option to pick — the price on the page is the price you pay.
Will I be charged US tariffs, import duties or customs fees?
No. We absorb them. For orders delivered in the United States, import duties and tariffs are already included in the price shown on this page. Nothing further is due when the parcel arrives, and no separate customs invoice will follow it.
That applies to the order you place at the price you were shown. If tariff rates move, that is our cost to manage — we don't go back to a customer for a difference afterwards.
Outside the United States, import duties and sales taxes are set by your own country and, where they apply, remain the recipient's responsibility. Rates vary widely, so if you're ordering from elsewhere and want to know what to expect, email hewskeep@gmail.com before you buy and we'll tell you what we know.
Can't I just buy the book on Amazon?
Yes, and if the book alone is what you want, you can buy it here on its own too. The Kit exists because the book is the easy half. The workbook, tracker, comparison sheet and 90-day sequence are ours, aren't sold anywhere else, and are the part that turns a good read into an account that's actually open.
How and when do I get everything?
The digital components arrive by email within a few minutes of checkout, so you can start the same evening. The paperback ships free worldwide, with tracking as soon as it leaves the warehouse — typically 7 to 10 working days in the US, and 10 to 21 working days elsewhere. Those estimates are deliberately conservative.
I'm not in the US. Can I order?
Yes, and shipping is free for you too — free worldwide means free worldwide, with no minimum. Delivery outside the US typically takes 10 to 21 working days. The one difference is duties: US import duties and tariffs are included in the price and absorbed by us, whereas any duties your own country charges are set by that country and are yours to settle if they apply. If you'd rather skip shipping altogether, the Digital Toolkit is the same documents, emailed within minutes, anywhere.
I have almost nothing to invest. Is this still worth it?
Honestly: if you're carrying high-interest debt or you have no cash buffer at all, the first chapters will tell you to deal with those before investing a cent — and you should. If that describes you, this Kit will still be useful, but the money is better spent on the debt first. We'd rather say that than take the sale.
Start where you actually are.
The plan for $50 is a real plan. It's just a different one from the plan for $5,000 — and this tells you both.
