Exploring a new investing tool for beginners — looking to validate a few assumptions

Hey all — I’m building a side project aimed at helping beginner investors feel more confident and informed when making investment decisions. A pattern I keep seeing is that newer investors often feel overwhelmed by charts, market news, or risk, and struggle to understand how real-world events affect their portfolios. I’m exploring an idea for a tool that simplifies this experience — not by giving financial advice, but by making the implications of investment choices easier to grasp in a more personalized and intuitive way. If you’ve ever felt confused or hesitant while investing (or know someone who has), I’d love your help validating a few assumptions. I put together a short, anonymous 3-minute survey to gather insights: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSexLIZK6Lpf7yLKuf30T7P3H8UKHUxd9kPDab9ZkCSAnjv_lg/viewform?usp=sharing I’m happy to share back what I learn if that’s helpful to anyone here. I’m not selling anything — just trying to build something useful with real input. Thank you!
