Choosing a junior ISA and a portfolio

[rod]

@anon287192

1. I cannot pick stocks such that I beat the market
2. I cannot predict which markets will do well in the future
3. There is no secret guide I can follow or advanced learning I could take that could rectify 1) or 2); magical future prediction abilities actually do not exist

To that excellent list, I add:

4. Nor do I have the ability to select the investment managing experts who will do well in future. All of these things mean that while investment “edge” can exist for some investors, I am not one of them.

(Though in truth I’m more like 95% in low cost trackers, not 100%.)

Anyway, I too would love to see the JISA idea get some more votes! @R.E.S On the off chance that you already have an account with Interactive Investor, I think you can add a JISA free.
