Asset management parents

Hello everyone,

I would like to help my parents with their assets at the moment (at this age, the focus is more on maintaining an asset position/slight growth)


My father will probably only want to work until 63-64, so I am aware that I don't want to take too much risk.


Father= 60yrs / mother= 56yrs

Gross salary= 200,000 p.a.

Cash in overnight and fixed-term deposits ~230,000


I was already able to persuade her last year to put €500 a month into the $VWCE (+0,12%) and also to invest a few one-off investments in the last week, as I wanted to take a little risk. (Money that they simply don't need immediately and can stay put for 10-15 years.


If I had found out about these sums a few years ago, I would have become much more active, because we all know what would have been possible with such a gross salary.


Now I would like to know from you what you can recommend as further investment alternatives, taking into account the investment period and the age of my parents😇


I had also been thinking more and more about dividend shares or money ETFS; however, I am still unsure about this.

No individual positions only ETF

Whether it's capital consumption or dividends, I would just keep it with an ETF. As passive as possible and just let it run. At this age, there's no more time for stock picking and "sitting out" bad trades

@Aktienmasseur Thank you for your feedback!

The question is also how you want to withdraw the money? Monthly withdrawal, with consumption of the deposit, or simply "only" passive income through dividends, or a mixture of all? Then there's also the question of how to define risk, some people need oxygen ventilation if there's a "crash" of 1.5%, others are relaxed at -25%... :)

@Dividendenoldie will probably end up consuming the deposit or monthly. Regarding the risk, I'm someone who sits out the risk and is relaxed, but with my parents it would be the opposite

Think about the deposit protection for cash holdings. Possibly shift some of it to $XEON in order to have solid conditions without having to go shopping for overnight money.

@G30G43BR4 Thank you very much, I will take a closer look:)

Similar for me. My parents now use Beck's 3-pot strategy 1:1. Makes the most sense in terms of predictability.
Will also be my withdrawal strategy in a few years.

So investing with money from "strangers" who have built up a nice cash position? I don't know...

Asking for advice in a community won't make it any better, especially as nobody knows your parents' plans and circumstances.

As little risk as possible doesn't mean no risk and your father only has 3 years of work ahead of him. Sitting out an economic crisis is almost impossible.
@Maverick4831 I didn't say that I wanted to invest all of this, but that it was more about asset protection and not about growth-oriented investing via ETF shares
