Very nice contribution, perhaps supplementary as 1997 build; many of us learn finance in the form of stock trading, ETFs and Co. especially in DE not in the parental home, many people are the first or second generation ever with Abitur (it was at the time of our grandparents financially simply mostly not feasible and not necessary for a well-paid job) and we get then especially from the broad mass of Finfluencern Rio Tinto, 3M and Co. next to a core of ETF / the big tech stocks -> hardly any influential Finfluencer generates clicks when he preaches ETFs / growth stocks with which we have if we are lucky and without health restrictions in 30-40-50 years what of it.

You can simply see that stock culture is still quite "new" in the broad masses in DE and the equivalent of the BILD - the high dividend preachers - rather get attention than the Finfluencer variants of trade magazines, which I think hardly anyone in this age really reads regularly, insofar as these do not correspond to the passion of a person. Far out briefly summarized; Oh Lord forgive them (with their high dividend stock mania), because they know not what they do 😉

@Leon139 the real role of finfluencers on Instagram I also seem to have underestimated so far. Not the first comment denouncing the content of those in the context of "how invested the youth". I must confess I don't really follow any there, but it's just the story you don't have to write yourself. Every time nen post when the dividend comes in and you already have a profile and ne story to tell. It couldn't be easier.

@Fabzy So I can only say my close circle of friends from school times has only through me contact points with the topic of shares, my family as well, from my studies (after training) there are then a few +- my age who have started depots, the first information came through instagram suggestions where once a Finfluencer has hidden in the algorithm. Yes, dividend screenshots are the simplest storytelling with the promise "build new sources of income, treat yourself to the Mercedes and the Dubai vacation and live happier" 😂
