Always! Put small amounts and keep adding small amounts.

What type of account are you making? If roth or traditional IRA, then use vanguard. If not for retirement use a no fee broker like Robinhood. If you use Robinhood, don't pay attention to it's game style. You don't want to be sucked into day trading. Do the boring thing. You'll beat most investors.

You're very welcome. Best of luck!
