...and as of today, my portfolio stands at just under 310k (rounded up a bit), as a purely passive investor in those boring but tried-and-true ETF structures (from which I’ve strayed every now and then without taking a nasty fall—the IZF is hovering around 14% 😮💨😄). $VWCE (-0,66%)
$WSML (-0,18%)
$XMME (-2,29%)
$IWDA (-0,48%)
$BTC (-0,52%)
Is this a good result? Is the performance over this period a success or just average? Just 3–4 years ago, questions like these would have kept me up at night. But something has changed in my experience and mindset since then. I’ve fully embraced mindlessly automated investing, and I’m absolutely thrilled about it. No event on the stock market fazes me anymore. Instead, I’m calm, content, and proud that I’ve maintained my discipline. Investing does something to you—definitely not in a bad way. And you’ve always played a part in that, which is why I’d like to thank all of you for this consistently motivating and pleasant community here. You’re all great.
And somehow it’s also funny that in real life we’d all just pass each other by, even though the tone here is always friendly and welcoming—at least that’s been my experience here 😄
Thanks to everyone—here’s to continued sparkling returns.
And always remember that we’re all living in a very luxurious bubble.
True happiness often only comes when you use material wealth (as well) to do good for others :)
Best regards
Yours, _EvD_🤓
