What’s the surest and fastest way to start investing in index funds the right way?
Commit to getting it done, with a fixed deadline
Work together a group of committed people
Get support from experienced coaches
Follow a simple and proven step-by-step process (the 4-step learning and investing system, which I have explained in a previous article here)
That’s what we’re going to do in January and February 2026!
Index Investing Bootcamp 2026
The Bootcamp is a 6-week program with weekly group coaching and accountability sessions.
It’s the best way to take control of your investing in 2026 and make sure your money is working hard and smart for you.
Together with a group of committed participants and experienced coaches (me and @Toon Cuyper), we will follow a fixed calendar to make progress on your investing and we will solve your problems together during the weekly sessions.
