First Step Investing Into My Future

I bought my first stocks that I hope will help bring me to financial independence in the next ten years.  I purchased 15 shares of Coca Cola, and 15 shares of Johnson and Johnson.  I liked the look of these companies after what I read about them on Dividend Mantra and on my own independent research. 

Each month I will be focusing on acquiring different types and sectors of stocks.  Next month I will open a Vanguard account and will buy index funds.  My other plans are to research and invest in the Japanese market as well to further diversify my portfolio.

Day one of a ten year journey.  Perhaps tsumashiku kurashi can help take some time off of that.
