Hello dear community!
I would like to ask you for some advice. 🙏🏻
(First of all, I am very happy to have found this platform and would like to thank you for all the added value from so many active people here).
Briefly about me:
I am now 25 years old and a complete beginner.
A year ago I didn't even know what a share was, let alone anything about the financial market, economic events etc etc....
After a year of "being a sponge", i.e. soaking up knowledge about all sorts of things at any free time in order to gain a foothold here, I have definitely discovered a passion.
Further on in the text...
Having a lot of cash is a horror for most people, according to the comments under some portfolio ideas... 😂
I've been hesitating to put my cash into the market for weeks because I always thought "hey, a stronger correction should be coming slowly" ...😂🤦🏼♂️
(As you have noticed many missed opportunities)
Speaking in numbers:
- I currently have €130,000 invested
- Cash around €500,000
- Monthly income approx. 80,000€+- currently
As I have only just started and am very careful with the money I have earned myself, I would now like some advice.
Clear goal: long-term, buy and hold
I have a wife and 2 year old daughter ... so I would hate to mess things up for our future and accordingly I didn't want to take any big risks with lots of individual stocks (no experience in analysis etc) ... I also now have exactly €50,000 of the €130,000 in $VWRL (+0,4%) .
The rest is in stocks like Visa, Microsoft, McDonalds, LVMH, ASML. I will simply hold these stubbornly for many years.
In the first few months of my year now, I played the "back and forth empties my pockets" game with smaller amounts and paid a lesson...😂
But long story short...Now I keep wondering how many of you would act in my situation and specific numbers with the current world events, economy, data, etc....
Just blow it all up in VWRL and open the app again in 5-10 years? 😂
Wait for a strong correction?
Cash in 10-20k a month in tranches?
Half of the cash in and half for the possible correction?
Would you rather buy a property? In Germany?
Gold? Crypto? ...
Allocate well or specifically overweight something?
I don't expect detailed explanations on specific areas or anything else in response to my unqualified post, but appreciate any comments and appreciate everything!
But to conclude kommen⤵️
What would YOU do in my situation?
If there are a lot of answers, I could use them to form the advice I'm hoping for.
Thank you very much for reading and for any answers.
I'm not particularly good at being brief, sorry...😭
LG
