Easy and accessible investing

I was always interested in investing but was intimidated by the prospect of it. After discovering Freetrade I was able to get up and running in minutes. I now have a healthy portfolio that's easy to keep track of as well as simple to buy and sell when I need to. They also have a great newsletter that's very informative and interesting.
