Why It Matters
Making every opportunity count: Ian Mattingly’s UK Invests story
For freshman Ian Mattingly, investing isn’t just about today. It’s about building toward the future.
Mattingly, of Versailles, Kentucky, came to the University of Kentucky with some experience saving and investing. But through UK Invests, he is gaining firsthand experience managing an investment account of his own and learning more about investment strategies he can carry with him long after college.
It’s a no-brainer to earn money you can invest for things you’re already doing in your daily life. It’s easy to set up and let it run, so it doesn’t take a lot of your time.
