Hi ,
my name is Karsten . I have lived all the years of my life without paying much attention to stocks and stock markets. At some point I completed my VWL and saved monthly in a European equity fund, then a fund policy was added, which at least put its amounts into a good international equity fund. In 2020, I then started to get to grips with the stock market and saved monthly in ETFs - without going into the typical beginner's mistakes in detail :-) sometimes more, sometimes less, wildly into various ETFs, so that at some point there was an ever-increasing number of ETFs with a savings rate of around € 150 :-) 2024 then gradually gathered more information and for about a year now a consistent monthly savings rate in six ETFs, which I am happy with:
45% $IS3R (+0,59 %)
15% $VNRA (+0,83 %)
11% $LCUJ (+1,04 %)
11% $IEEM (+0,83 %)
11% $MEUD (+0,32 %)
A few months ago I started to read more and more information about individual stocks, valuations, strategies etc. ..... And here I would just like to say thank you to many people here, for example @BamBamInvest , @Multibagger , @Tenbagger2024 , @Aktienfox and others !
I started investing in individual stocks about 3 months ago - 85% is consistently put into savings contracts, 15% of the capital is for individual stocks. I thought to myself, hey - people spend € 100 on golf or fitness clubs - if you have such expenses, these funds are invested in further stock education :-) The first month was a plus / minus zero game ( so better than the monthly fee for the golf club ), the last two months have averaged € 450 plus with a lot of learning effects and moments - what a pleasant situation : € 300 were put into the monthly savings plans and thus doubled the savings rate, € 150 invested for the family ( food / cinema ) - I am already aware that there are currently strongly rising prices / markets and it requires rather a certain skill not to make these small profits in this momentum. In any case, for the time being I've only looked at momentum / short-term stocks and now with $AMZN (+1,37 %) and $QCOM (+12,01 %) also invested in two stocks that I see as longer-term investments.
In any case, a big thank you for this community - it broadens my horizons immensely, including the fact that I now know many companies that are, for example, in the $VNRA (+0,83 %) and $WSML (+0,19 %) are listed !
If I have something meaningful to say, I will be happy to speak up more in the future, but I grew up with the value system "If I can't contribute anything, I'll just shut up" or as Roger Wilhelmsen once said so beautifully ." Where do most people get all their ignorance from"
