Tell us about yourself and what you do for fun.<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

My name is Tom I live in the beautiful South Tyrol\/Italy. I’m an Entrepreneur and run a local youth service, I’m Calisthenics coach and occasionally work as an audio engineer for various music groups and live festivals. In my free time, I love to educate myself, train Calisthenics and spend time with my girlfriend.<\/p>\n

What made you start investing with Bondora and are you investing for a specific purpose?<\/h2>\n

I have decided to invest in Bondora<\/a> because it is a further step towards financial independence<\/a> and I believe Bondora is the best platform to generate passive income quickly and easily.<\/p>\n

What were your goals when you started and what is your net return today?<\/h2>\n

My goal was to achieve the 15% net return with Bondora. Currently, I am at almost 20%, which is 5% more than I expected. At 20% net return I like to take the risk of this so-called “alternative investment<\/em>“.<\/p>\n

What features do you use and how do they work for you?<\/h2>\n

In the beginning I used the Portfolio Manager<\/a> because it is simple and does everything automatically. When Go & Grow<\/a> was added, I had a virtual account created and now I can drive 3 different investment strategies. Go & Grow combined with Portfolio Manager and separate Portfolio Pro<\/a>. If you are interested to learn more about my Bondora investment strategies, you can visit my YouTube channel<\/a>, where I explain everything in more detail.<\/p>\n

If you could give any advice to someone starting out with Bondora, what would it be?<\/h2>\n

Be patient, only invest so much money that you feel comfortable with it<\/a>. Don’t take too big a risk and let Bondora do the rest for you. Watch a video<\/a> about the possibilities of
\nBondora or read the FAQ<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Do you think Germans invest differently to the rest of Europe? If so, how & why?<\/h2>\n

I believe that the Germans here in the DACH region are very concerned about security and minimal risk. Diversification is therefore one of the most important arguments<\/a> when Germans build up a portfolio. Warren Buffett would certainly see it differently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
