At What Age You Started your First Investment?

I was a new teacher when I started to invest. I was 21. I ventured into buying and selling young cows and female pigs. It was my sister who managed it, but so sad, I was not able to hold a single profit. I learned from my brother, my elder sister sold my cow and the pig bore 5 piglets and she sold them all. I cried and wanted to jail my sister, but it was my father who punished my sister. We are not on good terms until this time , she is already very old. She did not apologize to me. 
That's good to know. I had so many investments in the past like housing, but the one who rented didn't pay religiously to the national home mortgage so arrears accumulated that reached to 1.8 million. I was so afraid but thankful to God He gave me a buyer business man from Ethiopia. I had 200,000 profit. That was a relief. Thank goodness, I was saved.
I started my first investment when I was 29 and that was a long time ago.
I think there is no age limit with regards to investment. As long as you have spare money, done sufficient research and are ready to take a risk, you can start making investment.
I am sorry to hear this. I would feel bad if I were in your shoe. Do you think she forget that matter? I assumed that she did because of old age. I hope it would not happen to me and other siblings of mine. It happens in my father side and they are my evil relatives.I was a new teacher when I started to invest. I was 21.

So far I have never made an investment, I have a desire to invest in gold if I have more money someday. For now I am still self-sufficient by saving money in the bank.
