Pilot, co-pilot or auto pilot? What type of investor are you?

BMO

The engineering profession is as diverse as the many industries within which engineers work. Regardless of the specific tasks that we carry out in our varying job roles, productivity and efficiency tend to be two overarching principles that define and guide any of the work that we do. We work hard for the money we earn; so why shouldn’t our money work hard for us too?

Choosing to invest ensures that your assets are as productive and efficient as you are. If you keep your money in your back pocket, it’s hard to earn more than simply what you save. By investing your money, the returns you earn allow your money to grow, creating financial wealth over time.

Of course, investments also come with a certain level of risk–another concept with which engineers are very familiar–but by staying educated and informed about the different types of investment options available out there, you’ll be equipped with the knowledge you need to make calculated and evidence-based decisions that are right for you.

As lifelong learners and problem-solvers, it’s no surprise that engineers tend to be well-suited to mastering the infinite tools, technology and resources available in our highly-digitized, online world. Online investing is yet another exciting and empowering opportunity to satisfy our thirst for convenience and independence. Regardless of how active you want to be in managing your investments, one of three available online investing options is sure to meet your needs and desired level of control.

There are three different ways that you can invest online, depending on your preferences. BMO Wealth Management offers all of them. Depending on how active or hands-off you want to be with your investments, you have the freedom to choose the service that’s most appealing to you. Take a look!
