"Your child has something no adult investor can buy:
18 years of time."

What counts

€100 per month. 18 years. 7% p.a. (historical average, no guarantee). Paid in: €21,600. End value approx. €43,000. The difference: compound interest.

What waiting costs

Starting 3 years later: same rate, but compound interest has 3 fewer years. The head start cannot be recovered – only with significantly more capital.

What you learn today

The complete process: which portfolio, which broker, which ETFs, how taxes work and what to do when the market crashes. From zero to savings plan running.

Important: These are educational contents. No investment advice, no tax advice, no product recommendation. You decide independently.
Agenda · 7 blocks

What we cover

Approx. 2 hours of content + 20 minutes Q&A. Live via Zoom. No recording.

Block 01
The Power of Time

Why starting early is structurally unbeatable – with real numbers.

Block 02
ETF Basics

What separates a good ETF from an expensive one – and why most actively managed funds underperform.

Block 03
Portfolio & Broker

Children's portfolio or parents' portfolio – which option for whom. Broker selection: what actually matters.

Block 04
Portfolio Options A, B & C

Three structures – from simple to considered. Which one I would recommend – and why.

Block 05
Tax Basics

How to legally get more out of the children's portfolio – and what most people miss.

Block 06
Crash Protocol

What do you do when the portfolio is down 30%? There's a document for that. You get it in the workshop.

Block 07
Maintenance & Handover

Once a year. 30 minutes. And at some point, the conversation that matters.
