Additional Investment Options

Additional investment options include cryptocurrency, NFTs, shares of art, and the stock market through Robin Hood. These provide multiple streams of income but are also very volatile. Please do your education before investing in any of these streams. As with any investment, do not invest more than you can afford to lose. We will be sharing a workshop from a partner when it’s available.
