Buy shares in a savings plan

Hi everyone, I've been investing in an all word etf for a few years. I've wanted to start with stocks for a long time... Now to the question> I'm at Ing. You can buy savings plans based on stocks there. Can someone tell me whether it makes sense to invest in Apple, for example, for 100 euros a month, or is it worth buying shares as a whole? It would just be a starter. I have a sample portfolio at OnVista, but it's not my money that's there. Greetings submitted by /u/Wonderful

FKSAX and FZROX - keep both?

My company recently changed from vanguard to fidelity for our transitional 401k. I was moved into having FSKAX as one of my holdings. I also have FZROX for my Roth IRA personal account. Does it make sense to hold these two? I am leaning towards switching out FZROX from my Roth IRA to make sure there is less overlap. Any insight on these two will be helpful. I see the main holdings for each are pretty much 1:1, so it seems to me redundant. submitted by /u/GuillotineTeam [link] [comments]
