I asked myself this question some time ago. Saving, investing, building up assets - all well and good. But what is it actually for? What is the goal?

At some point, the answer was clear to me: financial freedom.

Not because I never want to work again. On the contrary - I like working. But I don't want to have to anymore. I want to be able to decide for myself how I use my time without my income depending on it.

That's why I've opted for a clear focus on dividend ETFs. $TDIV (+0,21%)
$VHYL (+0,13%) decided on dividend ETFs.

They provide me with a regular, predictable income - a step towards independence. This cash flow currently allows me to work part-time and at the same time build a self-employment that is based on my interests - not on a fixed employment contract.

I am fully aware that if I were to invest purely rationally and with a focus on returns, e.g. only in the $VWRL (-0,13%) the path to absolute financial freedom might be shorter.

But let's be honest - who knows whether you will ever reach your goal? Health, life circumstances, fate - there is no guarantee for later.

So why not live a little more freedom today instead of putting everything off until "someday"?

My portfolio reflects precisely this conviction - long-term focus, but with ongoing benefits. And to be honest: I simply enjoy investing.

That's why, in addition to solid dividend payers, I also have a few positions for gambling $BATS (+0,6%)
$GOOGL (-0,7%) - Shitcoins $CHZ (+2,3%)
$MANA (+5,93%)
$SOL (+3,54%) included.

What do you think?

Nice new function 👍

I'm quite happy with my portfolio. With a focus on dividends, I still did quite well technically in terms of performance. In the fall, I had more than €100,000 in my portfolio for the first time. If someone had told me that 4 years ago when I started investing, I probably wouldn't have believed it 😅

So to all beginners reading this: Just keep going. It will grow all by itself. Starting was the most important step 👌

I currently have a portion in the call money, as I have two individual shares $MCD (-0,34%) and $MNST (+0,39%) have sold. I'm currently monitoring a few stocks so that I can possibly reinvest the money there. As described in the previous post, part of the money is used for active trading. I just need that for the fun factor.

Three mini crypto positions have been added in addition to Bitcoin $BTC (+1,27%) have been added: $CHZ (+2,3%)
$MANA (+5,93%)
$SOL (+3,54%)

Let's see if the altcoin bull run will work out in 2025 😅

Remaining stock derecognized.

Metaverse play has probably failed, at any rate I have liquidated all my positions for the time being. Fortunately, they were only very small weightings. Still annoying though.
