My life story

A memorial?

I often read here about extraordinary life stories and paths to financial independence. I am also very impressed by the many young people who are active here and already have their lives fully under control, planning, saving and, for the most part, investing successfully.

It's all different for me and I alone am responsible for that. It is always said that clever people learn from mistakes, the more intelligent learn from the mistakes of others and madness is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. So not only did I make mistakes, but I also learned nothing from them and kept repeating them.

Where should I start? Today I am 35 years old. I've been investing in shares and ETFs for a year and have since built up a fortune of €20,000 and am debt-free, which wasn't always the case.

It all started in my hometown of Hanover, where I spent the first 13 years of my life with my mother and started "working" at an early age. I collected returnable bottles and scrap metal and handed out newspapers. Did I save this money? No, I bought myself sweets, licorice, kebabs and once a Sony CD Walkmen.

When I was 13, my mother was persuaded by her parents to emigrate back to her home country. And so I came to Sicily, where I spent the next 5-6 years of my life. In Sicily, I started waiting tables in restaurants at the weekend and earned €25-30 per evening. Contrary to what you might think, things not only continued seamlessly for me at school, but also went pretty well. However, little by little, I took actions that would, in retrospect, block my own path. In short, I dropped out of school without any qualifications and was already working full-time as a waiter at 16. At some point when I was 17 or 18, I even worked in a five-star Kempinski hotel for €1000 a month, but as I had never learned how to handle money, I spent everything I earned on consumption, fun and pleasure. Between 16 and 17, I started to think about what to do next and considered joining the military. But finally, at the age of 18, I left Sicily for South Tyrol on my own, where I began a new chapter in my life.

For the first few years, I worked in a nice hotel on Waltherplatz and, in addition to my salary and tips, I even had food and accommodation included. Did I save money? No, in hindsight you could say that the more I earned, the more I needed to live on and so I squandered my €1,300 salary plus tips every month. I got my driver's license, bought a small, expensive annual car with financing and spent what was left over on consumption. I was never really satisfied as a waiter and always thought I was destined for more, and at some point what I had expected happened. An elegant young man in his late 30s approached me and asked if I would like to join his company as a salesman. The company in question was Wenatex. They sell mattresses and bed linen at overpriced prices at so-called parties at private homes. Suddenly I was earning €3-6,000 a month, but I was also driving 10-15,000 km a month and therefore had to invest a lot in the car, tolls, taxes and no longer had a company apartment. And in the end, I wasn't successful in the long term and had to leave Wenatex after less than a year. I wanted to keep trying in sales and worked for a few months at a company that sells office supplies, where I also had good success in the first few weeks and months but couldn't keep it up and had to realign myself after a few months, which is how I ended up at Rational $RAA (+0%) . It was believed that I was perfectly suited to selling this kitchen machine due to my gastronomy and "sales experience", but here too I was unable to show any long-term success. And although I had a relatively good basic salary of I think €1500 plus commission plus company car with fuel card at the time, I hadn't managed to save anything, of course, but had an overdrawn account.

In the meantime it was 2012 or 13, i.e. I was 23-24 years old and unemployed again. No money set aside, bank account overdrawn, a small, cheap one-room apartment to rent in the center of Bolzano and a beautiful BMW E46 323CI. But I had no plan for what to do next. But somehow I had this crazy idea that I wanted to go to Switzerland, the promised land. And here I definitely had more luck than sense. I found a German company that had just gained a foothold in Switzerland and was looking for sales staff. I got a permanent contract there, which immediately gave me a good residence permit, and found a very cheap apartment. Unfortunately, it turned out that this company was very dubious and had already been the subject of lawsuits. It came as it had to. I tried again with a similar company and then took the step back into the catering industry. This brought some peace and certainty into my life, but also dissatisfaction. I couldn't and didn't want to imagine spending my whole life as a waiter.

Through my work in the catering industry, I then saw tour groups traveling in coaches all over Europe for the first time at close quarters in Switzerland and thought to myself what a great job it was to travel and get paid for it, so I found out in which German-speaking country it was cheapest and quickest to get a coach driving license and, contrary to expectations, it turned out to be Austria. How lucky I was that my girlfriend at the time was Austrian and was very unhappy in Switzerland.

And so, in 2015, at the age of 26, a new chapter in my life began. We moved to her home town of Linz, where I still live today, albeit single. I got my bus driver's license and soon found a good job as a coach driver. My salary in Austria is now around €2500-3000 per month x 14 and, in addition to my salary, I have two other important sources of income: tips and selling drinks. Depending on the month, that adds up to between €500 and €2000 that I regularly pay in taxes.

But did I learn anything from all that before? No, I got into consumer debt and regularly overdrawn my account. Am I happy in the privileged position I have today? No. I keep mourning Switzerland and wondering whether I shouldn't go back. However, I wouldn't earn significantly more as a coach driver in Switzerland and would have a higher cost of living. It could still pay off, but I'm afraid. It wasn't like that before. Maybe it's because I'm getting older.

Now, in 2024, I have actually gradually paid off my debts, canceled my credit cards and am investing. I now live very modestly, no longer afford any luxuries and invest everything that's left over. I still haven't built up a nest egg and I still overdraw my account from time to time.

In Japan, the leading index Nikkei-225 was on course for recovery on Tuesday. It gained nine percent around an hour before the end of trading there. There were also signs of improvement in the USA on Tuesday after a very weak start to the week.

The online retailer Zalando
$ZAL (+0%) continues to benefit from its efficiency measures. Thanks to good inventory management and lower logistics costs, earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) adjusted for special effects climbed by almost a fifth to 171.6 million euros in the second quarter, as the DAX-listed company announced in Berlin on Tuesday. At the bottom line, profit jumped by almost 70 percent to 95.7 million euros compared to the same period last year. The company confirmed its annual targets. Zalando emphasized that demand had increased strongly, especially in the sports, designer and beauty sectors. The gross merchandise value for the three months to the end of June rose by 2.8 percent to 3.8 billion euros. Sales increased by 3.4 percent to around 2.6 billion euros.

The commercial kitchen equipment supplier Rational
$RAA (+0%) benefited from high demand in Asia in the first half of the year. Compared to the previous year, sales increased by four percent to 581 million euros, as the MDax-listed company announced in Landsberg on Tuesday. Sales in the second quarter increased by six percent to a record figure of just under 295 million euros. Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) increased by ten percent to 149 million euros in the first half of the year. Rational slightly exceeded the expectations of experts surveyed by Bloomberg in terms of both sales revenue and profit. The forecast for the current year was also confirmed.

The Frankfurt airport operator Fraport
$FRA (+0%) is feeling the effects of the problems at Boeing. Due to delivery bottlenecks for aircraft for its main customer Lufthansa, fewer passengers will be handled in Frankfurt this year than previously hoped for, as Fraport announced in Frankfurt on Tuesday. The Executive Board now expects only the lower half of the previously announced range of 61 to 65 million passengers at Germany's largest airport. Another reason is further maintenance intervals for the Airbus 320 . Meanwhile, Fraport performed better than analysts had expected in the second quarter. In the three months to the end of June, revenue rose by almost 11 percent to around 1.15 billion euros. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) amounted to just under 355 million euros. Fraport reported a Group result of around 148 million euros and the bottom line profit amounted to 134 million euros. A year earlier, this had amounted to 102 million euros. The management headed by Stefan Schulte confirmed the forecasts for the operating profit. The US aircraft manufacturer Boeing is no longer allowed to ramp up production of its medium-haul jets due to quality defects. And hundreds of Airbus planes will have to stay on the ground longer because engine manufacturer Pratt & Whitney has ordered their turbines back to the workshops ahead of schedule.

A voice against McDonald's $MCD (-0,05%)
(+ my alternatives for you)

I wanted to give a brief assessment of the fast food giant and also present some alternatives. I'm surprised that many private investors have been investing so heavily in the golden M recently. In other words, I'm not really surprised. The share has fallen over the year and when a share falls, it becomes cheaper. Isn't that right?

Well, I don't actually think that McD is cheap enough to see a clear buying opportunity here. The price may be quite fair, but I wouldn't recognize an undervaluation. But first of all, one thing that I think is good: I actually think McD is very good if you want to invest in real estate. At this point I say "Ok, before you go into some weird REIT then take McD all right"

Otherwise, however, I'm too skeptical when it comes to restaurants to get in at a P/E ratio of over 20. I'm not alone in this at the moment and that's exactly why the share price has fallen. The point is simply that gastronomy is cyclical. And, as I never tire of emphasizing, consumers now have increasingly empty pockets, which is considerably dampening their mood and ability to spend. In this respect, many gastronomy stocks such as $MCD (-0,05%) and especially $SBUX (+0,02%) possibly go even further downhill. Those who are keen to get in could therefore wait.

So as not to make this too long, I won't explain again why I have a few doubts about the future growth of Mecces in particular, even without the current sector effect. If you are interested, I will be happy to come back to this elsewhere. Instead, here are 3 alternatives that I currently consider to be better (not investment advice):

1) Coca Cola $KO (+0,09%) - I hope I don't have to explain where I get the connection from. But I actually think it's better at the moment. Of course there is a lot of gastro in the share, but it is not quite as vulnerable. You also get roughly the same amount of dividend for your money and essentially just an even more robust share. When I look at them side by side, they both look very similar, but I can't think of any reasons not to bet on CC, given McDonalds' current not-so-cheap price.

2) Rational AG $RAA (+0%) - is actually the ETF for system catering because it manufactures the appliances for such kitchens. As a result, it is also well diversified and has stronger growth. But it is also valued a little higher. I was also invested there for a long time, but it has exactly the same problem as the restaurant industry itself - it is also quite cyclical.

3) Edwards Lifesciences $EW (+0,16%) - Well, you didn't expect that, did you? But the Edwards share is now hardly valued higher than the McDonalds share and offers a great way to profit from the restaurant to the golden M if you think outside the box. I think the medical technology manufacturer specializing in cardiology is virtually predestined to supply MC customers as patients. So instead of investing in what makes people ill, you could also invest in what makes people well again. Unfortunately, there is no dividend for this.

You're all fans of dividends and growth, aren't you? Yes, both are possible! Then I'll try to be a finfluencer and briefly introduce you to one of my biggest positions and quickly copy and paste something together here.

It's about $RAA (+0%) Rational. Not only the name is cool, but also the products, the margins and the growth. Oh yes, the dividend.

I like to describe the products as the Themomix for gastronomy, just a bit more expensive. They really make sense for gastronomy because they take up less space and use less energy. After the working day, simply put the cleaning rod in and the next day the thing is crispy clean again.

Dividends were cut during the pandemic, but now things are slowly looking up again:

According to the current status as of January 2024, Rational paid dividends totaling EUR 13.50 per share within the last 12 months, of which EUR 2.50 was paid as a special dividend.At the current share price of EUR 720.00, this corresponds to a dividend yield of 1.88%.

Corona has of course hit Rational's customers hard and consequently the company too, which was really sad, but yesterday they released preliminary figures and things are looking good again:

Operating profit rose by 17 percent to around 277 million euros in 2023, the company announced on Thursday. At around 24.5 percent, the profit margin was higher than expected. Price increases also played a role in this. Turnover climbed by ten percent to around 1.125 billion euros.

As always, the valuation is quite sporty, but the company is also one of the best in Germany. ROE 27% ROA 20% etc.

Who has the share and who hasn't heard of it? Incidentally, it is listed on the Mdax at 7 billion Mcap.
