AI summary

Investing involves buying an asset with the goal of it gaining value over time. The objective is to maximise your return while minimising risk. Key asset classes include stocks, bonds, cash, and property, each with a different risk profile.

Property is often viewed as a medium-risk investment. A core principle is that time in the market is better than timing the market, so it's best to invest when you are able, rather than waiting for a perfect opportunity.
