Today, uh, folks, we're gonna talk about, I suppose, the kinds of investments there are out there, some of the things that you really need to watch out for, and I suppose over- overriding all of that is just this idea of diversification.

So the first one, I think most people would understand it, but we might just touch on it still, its, its main components is, is, like, shares on a, a stock exchange-
... public- publicly traded shares, shares that you can buy and sell in the same day, in the same hour, you know.
So, um, how do you make money on, on these investments? And essentially there's two ways, isn't there? Um, you can be paid a dividend.

So, um, I mean, the, the, the stock exchange, you probably know this better than, than I, Marcus.
