About me

Dear reader,


Here below I share some basic information about myself. I am a FIRE investment coach. I have been investing myself since 2006. I am a lawyer and an enterprener in my late 30s. I am focused on providing for my family and on building my retirement portfolio.

When did I start investing?

I started investing since 2006 after reading a book written by Robert Kyosaki. I understood that it is important to learn how cashflow works and since then I have always wanted to put my money to work for me. I have also started "paying myself first" by putting some money aside at the beggining of every month. I have also tested the Japanese house wife's saving technique ( KAKEBO) and I have learned that even a person who is heavy in debt with big household expenses can save some money aside.

What did I invest in over time?

I have tried many things such as: 

1. bonds (both Tbonds and as well as corporate bonds) 
2. stocks on the following markets:

  • US,
  • Chinese,
  • Japanese,
  • European (Austria, Australia, Germany, Italy, UK, The Netherlands, Poland )
3. currencies,
4. commodities ( gold, silver, palladium, platinum, CO2 certificates, coffee)
5. ETFs,
6. Investment funds
7. Options,
8. CFDs

I have also done some alternative protfolio investments in the following:

  1.  numismatic and collective coins,
  2.  En Primer wines,
  3. Crypto ( Bitcoin, Etherium and smaller top 100 and top 500 altcoins),
  4.  NFT's.
Over the long period I have had many mistakes and I have leaned from them. I am happy to share my thoughts with you so that you do not do the same mistakes and this way you will prevent from loosing your hard earned money. I am going to do what I can to keep things simple to understand for a 10 year old because investing is not rocket science and it works best when it is made as simple as possible.
The type of investing I reccomend is slow but steady growth and with the proper mindset you will become a millionare even if you set aside small amounts of capital but it might take 10 up to even 30 years.

To those who want to make a million within days or months all I can say is that this blog is not for you. For your information, I have tried x20 leverage CDF and crypto currency futures and more I have lost a lot of my capital and I highly reccoment to not treat investing as gambling.

How to design a portfolio in 3 simple steps: step 1/3

Building strong financial foundations. Before you even start thinking about investing you have to honestly ask yourself a few questions: Why are you investing your money?  What is your current age and till when will you be investing your capital?  What is your risk profile?  How much are you willing to invest initially and what amount will you put into your portfolio? How much time do you have to monitor your portfolio systemstically? Do you have a possibility to earn more or to cut costs and save more?  Why are you investing?  The why is the most important. This is going to help you set a goal. Perhaps you want to: retire early, save some money for your kids education, become rich, secure your family, help your parents retire early, perhaps all of them above. Whatever the goal is the strategy will be different depening on your age. Investing for future retirement when you are in your late 20s or early 40s is completely different to investing in your 60s. If I w...

Rookie investor episode 3

As most beggining investors I was rather gambling than investing. I had no clue what was important when looking at stock. I had no clue: How to find attractive stocks,  What tools to use for technical analysis,  What copytrading was,  What a support or resistance level was. What a moving average was,  What an exponential moving average was,  What the Fib retracement was and haw to use it property,  What a stop loss was, What Ex-dividend was,  What bullish formations were (Adam and Eve, double bottom, reverse H&S, falling wedge, rising triangle, bull flag)  What bearish formations were ( rising wedge, double top, H&S, falling triangle etc),  What a bullish or bearish divergence on the RSI was,  What the MACD was,  What the Stocastic RSI was,  What the golden Cross was,  What's the death cross was...  I could go on and on and believe it or not but if you sit down with a person who is good at explaining complicat...

CFD investent pros and cons?

  CFD stands for Contract For Difference. What is a CFD? Well let me start with what a CFD is not. It is not a stock. You can use this intrument with leveradge x 2 or x5 or x10 and I mostly use CFDs for shorting or longing. You do get a dividend from a CFD or if you are shorting a stock then you are going to be charged the dividend as it works in reverse. The pros of a CFDs A CFD gives you the possibility to make ganes regardless if the stock goes up or down. You can also trade CFDs when the market is closed. If you are trading witha x5 levrage and the stock goes up 2% your profit is 2%*= 10%! You can also make profit when you are shorting the stock or simply use the CFD for hedging your positions if you are afraid that the market will crash. The cons of CFDs If you are taking leveradge or you are shorting the market any small change will amplify your losses.  If you have no idea about day trading you better not use this instrument as over 70% of daytraders loose their money. ...
