Hi Ahimel,

I've done a little looking into index funds but it seems that a lot of them require a big amount to buy-in; the Vanguard 500 lists a starting investment of $5000 for eg.

Are there solutions for people like me without a big amount of cash but would like to start early?

P.S. I don't live in the US by the way.
