Financial freedom tips early retirement

I have made some changes in the saving plans. When you compare the performance from my Lyx Euro stoxx 600 and MSCI World there is a difference from 3% in one year. So i decided to buy a new ETF MSCI World All Country here the emerging markets are included. We will se if the performance here is more convincing. I also bought some stocks in the dip last year in december which pays off now. Its always hard to buy, an see its dropping down more but usually the market always turn back after a while. Now the anual return is by approx. 7% since 2015 which is great and proofs the long term passive ETF strategy and buy the dip is working. I only have to be used to learn to stay relaxed whe the stock portfolio is wanking about 1000€ a day down or up. All updates new buys and acutal worth of the stock portfolio can be watched in the Live updating Google Sheet its under the Investment tab.

Hi all, exciting times on the stock market but i love it when everyone is scared and prices drops. I used this to increase my position on the DAX the prices are underrated in my eyes. Its always a risk but normaly it pays of for me.

Short Update about the past two quarters A lot of changes: I sold Phillips 66 in total with 23% profit (i know to early but you never hit the perfect time). As posted before changend my saving plans to Lyxor. I also increased the amount of them because of a salary raise. I stopped 2 saving plans MSCI World Consumer / MSCI World Healthcare because of bad performance and high cost. Actual Performance from the past two quarters is about 11.4% one reason is the Exchange rate from the US Dollar to the €. The Whole Depot is approx. 16% in Plus.

Honestly i first start tracking the saving plan for this year, next half year overview then is complete with all older positions. With the Saving plans i get a yield from aprox 5%/year its a good value but pretty low for the record year. The reason for the "poor" performance is that the biggest stock are in USD Dollar and shown in €. All in all for a good year. I keep going with my savings only changes the ETF´s from Comstage to Lyxor simple reason the promotion from my broker for Comstage ends.  The whole Depot is now 15% plus. And Ive done my first Crypto "Invest" in Verge XVG.  https://vergecurrency.com/langs/en/  It was not that easy to get it like a stock and its very bumpy but interesting an I've learend a lot. Hope you all had a Good Start into the new Year Happy Investing in 2018

I want to give s short overview about Advantages from ETF´s ETF: Cost: approximately 02-0,8% Diversification: for example MSCI WORLD ETF 1600 company's in one ETF Saving plan: you can easily install a saving plan you can start with 25€ Fee: A lot of the saving plans are free from a fee Huge selection with different sectors: you can combine different Sectors very easy with ETF and lower the risk instead of buying single company´s shares Growth: It depends on the ETF when you buy an index ETF its´approximately the same growth and over the years nothing beats the index Tax advantages: You can buy synthetic ETF instead of replicated here dividends are different taxed (in Germany) Risk: It depends on the ETF but by an Index ETF you have a huge diversification but also the MSCI World Looses up to 50% in the worst crisis.

For me it makes every year up to 700€ only for the new customer Bonus and takes me only 30 minutes! Insurance: Here its sometimes a bit tricky because you can not change a live insurance easy. Here i only check my health insurance and my liability insurance In case of Car insurance check these because here you can safe a lot of money! Gas: It sounds stupid but i quit every year my gas contract to change to another provider. Here i get the same price or cheaper and mostly a few hundred euro new customer bonus. It takes me 5 minutes over a comparison site for example check24.de in germany Electricity: its the same easy process like gas. :-) Cable TV/Internet: I have a 2 year contract where i have the first year new customer conditions and then i must pay 60% more. So i quit every year and...
