My thoughts on Sunday " especially to the young people "

Good morning, my dears,


I have only really felt what the "getquin community" is all about in the last week.

For the very great and warm words I would like to thank all thank you very much.


I would like to motivate the silent readers even more to write a post, to comment and also to 👍. Because this👍is the recognition and motivation for me and everyone else who invests their free time in research and work for you to continue.


But don't be afraid to create a post yourself. Nothing is wrong, and most of us are not professionals or experts. Just put your questions or thoughts in the post.

It can only be positive for the community and connect even more.


Another thought from me is that, fortunately, more and more young people on this portal.


It gives me so much pleasure to see how here young and old can benefit from each other. The older ones can perhaps use their experience to help the younger ones avoid making mistakes. But the older ones can also learn so much from the youngsters. What I notice again and again in the very well-researched posts.

You have a completely different view of future technologies and that's why you are an absolute asset.


Whether you are young or old, male or female, it makes absolutely no difference.


I don't want to get too political now, because unfortunately politics is becoming more and more divisive and I miss constructive discussions more and more.


And here, in the pension discussion, people are also trying a little young and old against each other.


And that's why I would just like to give you young people my thoughts to think about.


I envy you for the knowledge and information that is made available to you on portals such as getquin. You have a huge bouquet of flowers, no, a forest at your disposal to inform yourselves.

AI takes investing to a whole new level.


In my day there was very little, a bit of Telebörse and 3sat Börse where you picked your mushrooms in the stock market game. Or every week you tried to get hold of various specialist magazines as quickly as possible. Prices were only available via teletext.

And it was even more difficult to get key figures.

The Internet had not yet been born or was still in its infancy.

Therefore, buying and selling was only possible by telephone or a visit to the bank.


Dear young people, you have completely different opportunities to build up a fortune, crypto and ETFs didn't exist in our time either.

What's more, even the last of you should now be aware that "pensions are not secure".

Because the elderly were constantly lied to with the words "Pensions are safe".


Therefore, dear young people, I would also ask you for a little understanding for the elderly.


The poverty in old age has to be financed in the same way in the end. But this should probably not be in our interest.


Thank you for reading.


And, as always, I look forward to a constructive discussion.


Successful together.


Your Tenbagger

Anyone who even enters the Getquin bubble is already miles ahead of their peers. We represent perhaps 5% of the population.

We should all be aware of this here: we are in the same boat and are trying to sail through the storm of the financial markets, whether with 2k or 2m 💪

@Epi
Yes, unfortunately this has not yet reached politicians

@Epi I don't think it's even 5%, rather less. 17.6% of the population invest in shares/ETFs/crypto
Presumably about 1% of people can live from this, 12-13% invest stubbornly in some investment products such as funds or have bought 50 Volkswagen shares at some point and then no longer bothered with them, leaving about 3-4% who actively manage their portfolio. In our bubble here there is already quite a lot of specialist knowledge that complements each other well.
But I think it's actually difficult for newcomers to find their way around the bubble because it's quite specialized and the stocks discussed here are mostly not mainstream stocks like $NVDA, $KO or anything else but quite special. I mean titles like $INT $PNG $SOFI etc. Which is of course always a certain risk

@Hotte1909 You're probably right. 5% was pretty optimistic. Our bubble is all the more bubbly. 😅

@Epi that may be. But we are all multipliers.

My children are over 18 and one of them can already stand on their own two feet. And yet: I support their monthly savings installments with a three-digit amount and enjoy the investment successes together with them. And when the bears get the upper hand, we confirm that perseverance is the trick and every installment buys the dip.

In short: the children are not (yet) on Getquin, but they do benefit in a roundabout way from the valuable contributions and team spirit here.

My thoughts on appreciation. Giving a 👍🏼 doesn't hurt and it confirms to us that the creator is not making the effort of posting in vain.
I have just seen for the first time how many views my contributions have and what the reactions are.
It's about 1% of readers who leave a 👍🏼.
Either my posts are uninteresting or the topic of appreciation urgently needs more attention here. 🤷🏼‍♂️

No, carry on with the contributions.
I also use the 👍 very sparingly.

I see it the same way.

The older generation must not make the mistake of claiming that they have been taught the ropes, like the generations before them.
Other views on problems/innovations are always important.

Life should be a place of constant trying, falling down and learning from it.

And hopefully the younger generation will learn that personal responsibility brings the greatest freedom.
Regardless of whether a state institution tells you that it involves risk/danger, freedom is superior to everything else.

P.s.
Pensions are also safe.
Only no statement/promise was made about the value of the pension 🤣😬🫶🏻

Thanks for this post, with clear words to the younger ones of us.
For my 1974 model year, the stock exchange was something alien, from another planet. There was no access.
And the supposed knowledge that my pension was secure.
Plus inadequate financial education.

Unfortunately, I still see it far too often in my environment that young people, by which I even mean everyone up to the age of 30, don't think about their retirement and spend all their money "on their heads" and fall into the "buy now, pay later" credit trap.
Society needs to educate young people much earlier on how to handle capital.
We can all do our bit here on getquin and simply address this topic with young people in our private lives and arouse interest in capital accumulation and retirement planning!

It's all the nicer that more and more young users are joining in, getting involved and even making their own posts.
To be honest, I didn't have anything like this in my head when I was 17, even if it was a different time.
I have the greatest respect for that!

@TradingHase Very well described.
But I think it is deliberately done so that young people never learn/know how to handle money or invest.
Because the whole system consists of creating debt.

@Wiktor_06 I don't even want to think about it.
A financially enlightened youth could have such great added value for society as a whole. I'm sticking to poking young people and perhaps arousing interest or at least making them think about the very distant future of pensions.

@TradingHase You're right. I've noticed myself that 3 people in my class are interested in investing. When I talk to people about it, they usually want to change the subject. One colleague has €73,000 in his savings account. And only invests €5,000. I've tried so many times to persuade him to park it all in a WTF. But he doesn't want to understand.

@Wiktor_06 Persuasion doesn't help, people have to understand and be convinced. Then there is also the opportunity to go one step further and invest.

@Tenbagger2024 It would be interesting. Just one lesson a month would have to be invested in it so that a basic interest can be awakened.
Perhaps in the 8th/9th grade and then perhaps offered as an optional subject the following year.

Most people see the stock market as boring. That's why you have to show how exciting it can be.

Hi, thanks for your contribution, and not just this one! You can find out who you want to learn from here and only with the forum here have I been able to come to my own conclusions. Thanks to everyone who posts and comments constructively here.

I am now 40 years old, and unfortunately I only got wind of the matter of "investing - crypto, shares, etf" relatively late. I only started very small when I was 33 and in retrospect I wish it had been considered more important...
Unfortunately, we can no longer rely on a policy that doesn't want to support us enough without our own help later on.

When I have a better idea of clever strategies and a big wealth accumulation - if it ever comes - I'll be happy to help others here too.

I will continue to be represented and look forward to meaningful contributions. Thank you!

Have a good rest of your lives. :)

Really very well done post.
As you say yourself, this playing off old and young simply doesn't make sense in the long term.
I'm grateful every day for the people who sit down here to make investing a little easier for other people.
It's not something that can be taken for granted.

I hope the young and the old get together even more to exchange ideas.

I don't think you should forget that we are in a (strong) bubble here. Young people who are interested in this topic are rather rare, but are certainly increasing, especially with the easy access to information (social media) about finance.
"Well played" in any case to all under 20s who are on getquin. You can learn a lot here :)

Hi @Tenbagger2024 - you're right. I should also participate more. I have so many questions about pensions, shares etc. but I always had the feeling that I was among professionals here. And I am absolutely not. Different from now on. Here's to a more communicative 2026!

Mega contribution!
I'm also trying to teach my children about this topic. You quickly realize how time flies - and when I see older people who have to collect returnable bottles, it makes me really sad. When you retire, you should be able to enjoy your life without financial worries.

I myself was born in 1976 and, as many have said before me, I didn't have the opportunity or the knowledge to find out about company key figures. Back then, buying shares was only possible through banks - and usually only for larger amounts. You simply couldn't start with one euro, as you can easily do today with many broker apps. And all from your smartphone.

If you start investing regularly in shares at a young age, you should be much more relaxed in old age. Keyword: exponential interest. (I watched the easy-to-understand YouTube (beginner) videos by Thomas from his website www.finanzfluss.de, thanks to Thomas for his work). Getting started early is reminiscent of Warren Buffett's approach: think long-term and invest. Today there are great ETFs that make it particularly easy to get started. Everyone should do something for their retirement; ETFs are pretty solid for this. And if you are more knowledgeable, you can of course also focus on individual stocks or crypto - that's exactly what I want to pass on to my children later on. Thanks to @Tenbagger2024 for your consistently great contributions, which I always enjoy reading.❤️

Thank you @Tenbagger2024. You really are a great asset on Getquin. I also find our bubble very pleasant, even the chaotic ones are part of it :) If I only compare the community with the finfluencers on Instagram... a huge difference. Especially in terms of quality. But what I find funny here... many finfluencers who advertise Getquin on SoMe are absolutely inactive here. 😬
