Self-improvement best investment for the young

When the stock market became bullish a few months ago, many young people rushed in to invest, with some even quitting their jobs or selling their houses. Now, with the sharp plunge in stocks, many are asking whether it is wise for young people to trade in stocks. Comment:

Young people should not waste their time in the stock market. Their largest capital is their youth. Once they invest their limited savings in the stock market, they can be shattered by fluctuating stock prices and waste their precious youth dealing with shares. The most valuable fortune they lose in the stock market is not money, but the opportunity for self-improvement, which is the most reliable and long-term source of income.
