Applying for multiple credit cards simultaneously can lower credit scores, shorten credit history, increase overspending risk, and weaken overall financial stability.

Your savings account is losing money.

Inflation is 3-4%.

Your interest rate is 0.5%.

Every year you ""save,"" you get poorer.

Investing isn't risky.

Not investing is.

Don't save. INVEST. Get higher compounding rates.

You don't need to pick stocks.
You don't need to time the market.
You don't need a financial advisor.
Buy one index fund.
Add money every month.
Watch your money explode.
That's it.
Become an ETF picker. Not a stock picker.

You don't have to be a robot to be rich.

In finance, "Rational" is doing what the spreadsheet says. "Reasonable" is doing what lets you sleep at night. If paying off low-interest debt gives you peace of mind, do it. The best financial plan is the one you can actually stick to, not the one that looks best on paper.

I had asked several times to get a bank account, and Mom told me I didn't deserve one. I couldn't be trusted with one. She wasn't going to have her name on it with me.

Credit guarantee isn’t a borrower benefit — it’s a risk-sharing tool for lenders.
By covering part of a bank’s loss if a loan fails after due process, it enables lending to students and first-time borrowers without collateral. Repayment responsibility stays the same; only risk is redistributed. This quiet mechanism plays a big role in who gets access to education and opportunity.

Irgendwas in der TL mit "Kein #Bitcoin gekauft? Vielleicht war das doch kein Fehler"

Mein Kopf: Herzlichen Glückwunsch zu dieser bahnbrechenden Erkenntnis. Krypto-"Währungen" sind an nichts außer sich selbst wertgebunden. Man kann schon in Glücksspiel investieren, aber man muss sich dann nicht wundern, wenn man Haus und Hof verzockt wie einst britische Gentlemen beim Whist. Und die hatten wenigstens noch nen netten Abend dabei. #FinancialLiteracy

Und ja, auch mit einem kleinen Sparplan kann man schon etwas bewegen – für sich selbst und in der Welt. Als freiberufliche Autorin habe ich auch keine hunderte Euro im Monat, die ich zur Seite legen kann. Aber jedes bisschen mehr im #Notgroschen und im #ETF-Depot für die #Altersvorsorge ist ein Schritt weiter weg von der #Altersarmut. #FinancialLiteracy
