Tips on investing/trading?

I'm hoping to start building some capital or make passive income (if that's an option), where do you guys recommend I start?

as long as there are drugs, guns and such to buy on the darknet, crypto will live. btc price has been going up recently.
Vanguard index funds
Don't do it . Without real experience / knowledge trading is very hard and around 75-90% of traders lose money . You're much better investing in index funds such as VUSA for us British folks and some individual stocks . I suggest largely blue chips .

Investing is a much better route .

I think this is what I meant. I don't want to deal with Forex or anything like that. Any tips on starting? how much do you think I should have before going in?

You should be aiming for monthly deposits and not a lump sum . A lump sum on it's own doesn't really go far.

Also as I said , stick with blue chips and index funds as a newbie

Ahh okay thank you. And what do you think is the minimum starting off with this?
