💬 Thank you for the course, Sebastien. I have no finance background and no interest in finance whatsoever. I have been wondering for years how to invest my savings, as I was aware of the inflation effect. But I never trusted banks for investments. Finally you gave me a solution! The course is clear and well constructed. It shows experience in dealing with students. And I feel confident enough now to get started. Thank you!

“After I make index investing work for myself, I’d like to pass this knowledge to my brother and sister, and to their children, so they can also have a good life and do good things …”
– Sophie
“Speaking from my own experience, it is very good value for money. Even if the course would cost a thousand euros or more, I think that is easily recouped by the value you get out of it, especially in the long-term when you consider the gains you get over multiple years.”
– David
“I joined the course because I learned about the FIRE movement online but all the information that you find online is very much geared to the US market. This course provides the information for Belgium in an easy package so I don’t waste too much time investigating it all by myself.”
– Marcia
“A big benefit from the course is that I know that I am working towards a good pension and financial stability, but doing so without putting too much time in it. I just live my daily life while being more secure about my finances. To me, that’s the biggest benefit.”

💬 Very practical course that has been instrumental for me to start index investing! My initial knowledge was extremely limited and the course allowed me to understand all important concepts and to feel comfortable taking control of my finances.
Alexis
“I am extremely happy that I can deal with inflation, my low government pension and take matters into my own hands.
I was impressed with the high level of the course. It was complete, thorough, understandable for anybody, the videos and communication was very professionally done.
I would recommend the course to anyone who wants a profit from their savings! Age, education, profession … it does not matter. Everyone can all benefit from this course. I am convinced ETFs will become much more popular in the future in Belgium.”
– Ann
💬 I do recommend the course for anyone who wants to take ownership of their own future without spending weeks learning the financial world.
Wout
“Thanks to the course my money will not be losing value to inflation on a savings account. I am also glad I’ve found a way to keep my money out of the hands of the banks and make it work for me, by me!
Sébastien has a calm, collected style of explaining. He uses a lot of examples, charts, graphs,… it really helps to understand the material. I feel that the course is well researched and supplemented with his own experience.
I would recommend the course to absolutely anyone who wants to take matters in their own hands with regard to their own financial situation.”
– Roel
“I joined the course because Sébastien does not have a conflict of interest, unlike most other financial institutions and because it is tailored to Belgium.”
– Robin
“This is the program I was looking for: Step by step learning based upon the experience of someone who has gone through the whole process.”
– Stephan

Index investing boot camp for complete beginners
This course is very suitable for complete beginners.
I personally found it very useful to come up with a plan to build supplementary retirement funds, and during the course I also realized the potential index investing could have for my kids and their future. I also learned asset allocation is key in managing exposure to risk.
I now have a much better understanding of how index investing works and I can make the right choices from a Belgian tax perspective.
Sebastien and Toon are very knowledgeable and super responsive to answer any questions. The course is also very well structured.

– Alexis
The course has given me control and a clear goal to save money for the long term. Without the course I would be very insecure.
Sébastien’s knowledge on the subject of index investing is amazing. He has the gift of explaining things very clearly to a diverse audience. His course could be an example of how to make a high standard online course.”
– Michael
“The course gave me an instant recipe for investing in stock and bond index ETFs, that is easy to follow. Week by week, step by step, learning what I need to know so that I can invest on my own.”
– Petra
💬 The Accelerator Pack helped me to do the first practical steps in index investing quickly, opening a broker account and making my first transaction. I felt very well accompanied by Sebastian all along the way. He is a very diligent and dedicated instructor. The course in itself is well structured, but in addition Sebastian also makes sure that everybody gets their questions answered, which is very helpful. I can highly recommend the course!

💬 First of all, many thanks for having built that course. About the course and the material, I find it very clear and well-articulated. It really helps to progress and to smoothly endorse that new role. Having said that, most important is what this course convey beyond a number of hours of theory or useful assets. I wish I could have followed it 30 years, or maybe even 40 years ago. Why 30 years ago? Because everyone should be thought the role of money and how it will affect everyone’s life. It took me 56 years to understand that the educational system is a “sheeps factory”. I am convinced that providing such a course and every student being given 5.000 Euros tied to a mandatory assignment, it wouldn’t take more than a generation to transition from a society mainly divided between “sheeps” and “wolves” into a “shepherd dogs” society, if well guided. I am happy to develop. Thanks again.
