When you buy stock in a company, you become an owner of the company. The stock is an asset that you expect to increase in value. The thinking is that if you invest in Coca Cola that they will be able to grow their business and be rewarded with a higher stock price. Investments can help you stay ahead of inflation. The things to be aware of is that when you buy a stock, there is usually a commission charged to buy the stock. When you sell the stock and it has increased in value, you will need to pay taxes on the difference between what you paid for it and what it was worth when you sold it.
Wishing You Success in all its Greatest Forms,
