That's my secret trick: if you never earn enough money to be able to afford to invest, you lose nothing when the market crashes
That's a misconception. You can now buy shares in fraction depending on the investment platform. You can put however much money you want. Of course, the fewer shares you buy, the fewer the returns should the stock price increase (and fewer losses if share price goes down).
Do they also pay out partial dividends on shares that provide them?
Yes, they still pay fractional dividends in proportion to how much you've invested depending on the platform.
Thank you!
