Can I buy $100 worth of S&P 500 ?

Yes — you can invest $100 in the S&P 500, and this video shows you exactly how, using fractional shares instead of buying a full share.

Many beginners assume investing in the S&P 500 requires hundreds of dollars per share, but that's not the case anymore. In this video, we explain how fractional-share investing lets you put as little as $100 into popular S&P 500 ETFs like VOO, SPY, and IVV — even though a single full share of these funds often costs $400 or more. We'll walk through which brokers actually support this, what makes each option different, and what to watch out for before you invest.

Here's what you'll learn:

- Why the S&P 500 itself can't be bought directly — and what an S&P 500 ETF actually is
- How fractional shares let you invest $100 (or less) into VOO, SPY, or IVV
- Which brokers — Fidelity, Schwab, Robinhood, Cash App — support fractional investing with no minimums
- Why Vanguard only allows fractional purchases of its own funds, like VOO
- The small but important expense ratio differences between VOO, IVV, and SPY
- What to check before depositing money, including fees and account restrictions outside the US

Investing in the S&P 500 with a small amount of money is more accessible today than most people realize, and understanding fractional shares is the key to getting started without waiting to save up for a full share. Whether you're testing the waters with $100 or building a habit of investing small amounts regularly, this breakdown gives you the practical steps to do it correctly.
