Are you the friend with the colour-coded holiday spreadsheet, or the one asking "where are we going for dinner" as you land? In episode two, Sarah (Senior Account Manager at etoro) and Tash (Social Media Manager at etoro) spill the tea on what your holiday planning style says about your investing style, and why... there's no wrong answer. 

They break down the three types of investors (active, passive, and blended), explain ETFs and the S&P 500 in plain English, and answer the first Loud Line question Spoiler: there’s pizza involved.

If you've ever wondered whether investing is for you, start here. Because investing doesn’t have to feel intimidating or overwhelming. It can be familiar, relevant and... dare we say it... a little fun.
