Drew | Investing Journey

Funny to think my investing journey started because I randomly came across Trading212 on TikTok during the COVID pandemic. Like many people during lockdown, I was bored, curious, and had no real idea what I was doing.

@SpaceX Excellent as always

Dragon’s four main parachutes have deployed

@jamie_envesta Sound reasonable. Everyone has there on reason and investing style. Hope your stocks picks do well

Hiya Drew. I do not. I have noticed ETFs seem to be the starting point for most investors. Myself included. And that’s a good thing because it stops beginners buying into hype and YouTube gurus who promise a stock is going to the moon before it drops -50%. So I think ETFs are a great starting point. However, for me personally I’ve spent years studying businesses, so I’m comfortable running a more concentrated portfolio of individual stocks. The trade off is higher risk (obviously), but also potentially higher returns. Most of the stocks I own have generated returns in the last few years that would have taken 30-40 years to achieve through a broad market index. But please let me clarify because I think it’s important, that doesn’t mean I think ETFs bad investments, far from it. They’re probably the best place for most investors to begin. I just prefer backing a small number of businesses that I have very high conviction in.

Hi all, thought I would take a minute to introduce myself. I am Jamie 👋🏻 a retail investor from London, a husband, a dad, and someone who’s spent the last decade obsessed with learning how markets work. For the last three years I’ve managed what turned out to be the best performing public pie on Trading212 the last three years running - The Disruptive Tech portfolio. During that time the portfolio has delivered average annual returns of approximately 147% per year, while remaining publicly visible and fully diversified throughout. Along the way we’ve invested in companies like $PLTR at $6, $RKLB at $4, $TSLA around $100, $HIMS at $4, $HOOD at $11, $NBIS at $18 , $ASTS around $20. I haven’t sold or taken profits on any of these yet in the pie so as you can imagine, we have done modestly well to say the very least. Don’t take my word for it, go check it out… trading212.com/pies/ltznn2udP… Before that, I founded and spent years building a blockchain based private fund were we accumulated assets such as $BTC around $18,000, ETH at $700, LINK ant $4 and XRP at $0.30. Today, I still own and oversee a services business that I’ve spent the last 11 years building, but over the last year I’ve taken a step back from the day to day operations to focus on building @EnvestaApp | An app, built by myself and other retail investors, for retail investors. Our goal is pretty simple, to build the world’s largest community of retail investors and make investing easier to understand for everyone. Like many investors, I started with index funds. Over time I moved into individual stocks, made plenty of mistakes, learned from them, and gradually developed my own investing framework that works well for me Now, after years of people telling me to start some socials, and share a bit of what I have learned, here we are 😊 This account will be where I share my thoughts, research, wins, mistakes, lessons and market insights as they happen. No gurus. No lambos. No promises. And certainly no promises for trips to the moon. Just a retail investor sharing what I have learned after 10 years in the markets. If any of that sounds useful, stick around. Nothing I post is financial advice. These are my personal opinions only. Always do your own research.

@danhinvesting That’s crazy deduction Uber taking a huge cut of your pay If a passenger complain, have you ever ask your customer to cancel the job and just give them a lower price? Cut out Uber? Both of you win ?

Uber at it again with an over 40% deduction from a job I did. Customer paid £47.96 I got paid £27.72 People sometimes get in my car and complain about the price. Insinuating that the driver decides what the passenger has to pay. I always say that Uber are ripping us both off. I understand Uber will always take a cut but surely this is to much? This was a 30 minute trip. What do you think? Fair or not?

@isha_singh06 iPhone Better reliability

You can have one of these completely free forever, which one are you taking? 👀 - Iphone - Samsung

@SherlockInvests Exactly , those dividends payments help psychologically keep me going. May not be the most efficient way of investing but keeps me consistent on investing in my etf aswell

People underestimate how motivating it is seeing dividends land in your account. Not because of what they buy today. But because they remind you that your money is quietly going to work while you sleep. Small streams become rivers, dear reader.

@Samurai__Stock Keep going! You’ll get there soon

Stuck at 4.4M impressions We are almost there!!
