Testimonials
This knowledge is for absolutely everyone who doesn’t know where to start handling their money. Whether you save 500 euros, 5000 euros or more, you, as a regular normal person who hasn’t got any financial education, you can learn to take control and invest your money without having to rely on a bank or some other financial service provider. Absolutely everyone, whether you are a student, just starting at a job, more advanced or even already retired. Everyone can benefit from taking control of their finances and their lives.
Make your money work for you in a reasonable way, not in a casino style where it's either a winner or loser, but it's really in a robust, thoughtful way that can definitely be a much better option than just having it lying on your bank account.
Since starting investing over one year ago, I have seen a return on my investment of roughly 9%.
