[Understandable in 5 minutes even for investment beginners] How to start the new NISA, explained for babies

Introduction

The other day, a new employee asked me,
"I want to start investing, but what should I do first?"
For those who already invest, this might seem obvious, but for a beginner, it's hard to know where to start.
So, this time, I will explain how to start the new NISA at a level even a baby could understand.
First, let's look at the overall flow.

That's it.
It really is just this (lol)

1. Choose a securities company

I recommend these two.

Honestly, either one is fine.
If you are in the Rakuten ecosystem, choose Rakuten Securities.
If you're unsure, choose SBI Securities.
That level of thinking is fine.
I also spent a lot of time researching which one was better at first, but looking back, it would have been faster to just open an account (lol)

2. Apply for a NISA account

Once you have created a securities account, apply for a NISA account right away.
You need three things:
・My Number Card
・Identity verification documents
・Bank account
You can complete the process with just your smartphone.
It's easier than you think.

3. Set up your automatic investments

Next is setting up your automatic investments.
I recommend
"eMAXIS Slim Worldwide Equity (All Country),"
commonly known as 'Orkan'.
Since you can invest in companies all over the world at once, it's a product that's easy for beginners to start with.
The investment amount can be whatever you are comfortable with.
Even 1,000 yen a month is fine.
What's important is not the amount, but starting.

4. Leave it alone

This is the most important part.
Do nothing.
Really, do nothing.
As long as the monthly investment amount is in your withdrawal account, you're good.
There might be days when you feel anxious after watching the news.
But basically, just leave it alone.
And occasionally check your asset screen and grin (lol)

Frequently Asked Questions

Conclusion

I have been doing automatic investment for several years now.
Looking at Orkan alone, I am currently up about 70%.
2 million yen → 3.4 million yen
Of course, there is no guarantee that the future will be the same.
Even so, I am glad I started back then.
Investing seems difficult, but once you take the first step, there is surprisingly little to do.
I would be happy if even one person who reads this article takes that first step.

This time, I explained up to the point of starting the new NISA.
However, since you just leave it alone once you actually start investing, some people gradually start to feel it's not enough.
I was the same (lol)
From there, you start thinking:
・I want dividends
・I want to try investing in specific sectors like semiconductors or AI
・I want to try buying individual stocks soon
I wrote an article explaining "What should I do after automatic investment?" as clearly as possible, so I would be happy if you could take a look at that too 🩷
