Welcome to the community @TheGreatGatsby
Being new around here you might not realise that the Freetrade team read most of what is posted here, especially on threads like this ( 
:freetrade: lurkers) and they’ll take on board points like yours.
Freetrade was made for people just like you. For people who were locked out of investing and wealth building by high fees and complex platforms. Keep doing what you’re doing and saving monthly (if you can) and you’ll be sitting pretty in a number of years with only your good decisions to thank.
If you have any investing questions that you’re not sure about post them here and the friendly regulars will happily help out.
There are also a ton of resources for the Freetrade team and the community to read up on -
And of course, make sure you’ve signed up for honey the free newsletter from Freetrade, news, and memes what’s not to like?
