One lesson I've learned from millionaires is to always put your money to work, no matter how small. Even investing €200 per month can compound to tremendous wealth over decades. The key is to keep going!
My advice for who wants to grow financially this year, invest. Saving is good, but investing elevates your finances. Thanks to my financial advisor, my portfolio is thriving, and l'm proud of last year's decisions.
People often don't realize how important financial advisors are. Data from the last 50 years shows that people who work with CFAs usually earn more than those who don't. I've worked with a Adviser for 7 years, and now I have a $2 million portfolio.
I've stuck with ''Julianne Iwersen Niemann" for some years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She's quite known in her field, look her up..
There are a lot of strategies to make tongue-wetting profit that the average joes don't know. . Personally, the financial-market for me seems the only way forward with my long time horizon (accrued roughly $457k in gains since Mid 2021 ) but if you don’t have that fortune of time it’s a tough market out there almost nowhere feels safe!
If you’ve got patience I believe it’s a great time to invest… I’m no expert but as Warren buffet said he’s seen this happen a number of times throughout his life
@@BrunoLuke I've known I had wanted to start investing for a few months but just haven't been brave enough to start due to the market so far this year. I have $60k I want to transfer into an S&S ISA but it's hard to bite the bullet and do it. $457 is a huge milestone, Please what's your strategy? I will love to have an insight

They come in like a wrecking ball. To all of you owners out there, thinking this might be a good idea to sell and cash out. Remember you’re not selling a company you’re selling the people that made you all of what you are today. And you will be there to witness what they do. The people that you knew and trusted for decades will be thrown away like trash. Enjoy your retirement.
As a real estate appraiser I find it amazing how PE has moved into real estate development. In a slow market and/or rising interest rates the PEs can be destroyed. When you consider the property's market value the PE's can be overleveraged to the point that the debt is more than market value. The PEs look great right up until the property goes into foreclosure, then everything vanishes for the investors.
What is the statistical probability of the first quartile achieving it again (repeating success)? Poor. What are the odds of the largest funds achieving success (beating an index fund)? Random.So, why is it that these funds continue to exist? In investing in proprietary companies, one significant success can fund the future of the PE company and the investor’s desired returns. What we need to know is what the average dividend and distribution is of the PE funds to the investors over 10 years. Diversification is often the major cause of earnings paralysis; clipped at the knees by over diversification. The pressure to succeed, the entrance of the more common investor in PE funds and the failure to achieve success beyond the index funds has muted interest by the institutional investor. Knowledge is king. First question to ask a PE fund, “What are your exact carry fees and are they based upon revenue or invested funds values?”
When you have to substantiate your worth with a glorious CV for 5 minutes before saying anything should say all you know. Trust me, we all know what Pro Bono means. We all would love to know what you actually did, not where you were at some point in time.
Just listened to him talk about how Asian retail investors are more “whimsical” (it’s a “hot stock”) than US retail investors. yep I knew right then this video was before GameStop and before Covid. Sure enough it was 5 years ago.
Ever notice with these PE firms🤔 The CEO'S are the ones that always become the billionaires👌they use their clients funds to rake in the dollars and handout to them the cents❤
I think PE and M&A work. But you have to invest in good businesses with strong fundamentals. When you do that you don’t need to fire people and shift a lot around to improve the profits because you bought it profitable. The problem here is with any asset class; when you have more money chasing it the prices will inflate beyond what the assets are truly worth. When leverage debt gets involved it gets nasty because the lenders will continue to lend based on what the new fair market prices are. Easy example: housing prices. Banks keep lending even when the prices of housing are way to high because “they can make the payment” Same thing here. It’s all good until you can’t make the payment. This is the same just on steroids.
I'm a rube. But just received a money market ad from my bank that was going to pay 2 percent!!! I want to know how to get their 21 plus percent usury credit card returns into MY account. Really!!??
Confirmed some of my suspicions that few alternatives seem to be beating 60-40 indexing. It would be nice to hear more on that; esp. the free/no agent fee options ;-)
I, generally, agree with his overall warnings about the "fuzziness" associated with PE or the exaggeration of the possible future returns. However, I think he's being a bit disingenuous comparing PE returns to the returns of US public equity markets over the past decade. The past decade for the S&P500 or Russell 1000 has far exceeded long-term averages (aka the returns have been anomalous.)

Great talk. I honestly think the average person on a good salary is best off putting his money in a high interest savings account as contrasted to entrusting a PE fund with it. For someone with more time and money on hand, a more active apprach is preferable wherein they are picking investment vehicles with more personal scrutiny.
For the average person, only for short term savings would I recommend a "high yield" savings account. For the last two decades, the return rate for CDs and Money Market accounts have been laughably low, so low that savers are punished by actually losing money after adjusting for inflation. Only recently have savings accounts started offering higher rates approaching 5%, but it's still not even enough to offset current inflation rates. The only good thing to say about these accounts is that they allow you pull money out in a relatively short time horizon while offering a slightly better return than a simple checking account. For any serious long-term savings, the clear choice is to open an IRA, Roth IRA, or HSA and invest the money in a low-cost index mutual fund or ETF. Turn on recurring contributions and stay the course; do not get scared when the market changes. You'll end up with an average 7-10% return annually and it will entirely or at least mostly tax-free money.
I had to pause half-way and comment. Irrespective of whether his data is backed by legit sources or not, the very premise of a PE is shaky (at best) to me. I'm a "risk averse" profile - so, yea - Thank you, but no Thank you. Awesome presentation, though.
Basically, the more leverage (debt) you use the better your returns will be or worse your losses will be - hence the volatility of PE LBO's. Debt enhances either your wins or your losses, depending on the outcome. Leveraged Buy Outs - LBO's, make use of debt to buy companies; they turn around and sell these companies after paying off the debt for an insane return. Let's say there's a company worth $100MM and I put in $50MM of my own money and $50MM of debt. If I can use the cash flow of that business to pay off the $50MM, I could potentially sell that company for the same price I bought it ($100MM) and make a cash return of $50MM. Picture that, only you sell that company for waaay more than you bought it for. That's essentially what he's getting at.
there is no way in hell, an investor is going to get an above average return when the fees are 2% plus 20% carry for gains. Warren Buffett made this bet with several fund managers and he won all of this bets.
1 in 1024 investors beat the market? Are you sure about that? You may have misplaced a decimal - seems more like 1 in 10,240. But I'm speculating - could easily be 1 in 102,400. Better to invest in yourself, buy Porsches, and travel the world. Those are zero-risk high-return investments.

Excellent, clear and well researched presentation on the myths of private equity - thank you!
Good presentation. Additionally, both Buffett and Munger have very low regard for PE firms, that’s says a lot about these firms.
Awesome talk... Main thing was that the PE funds are themselves marking to the market of their unsold investments.
except it's not entirely true. All the funds are audited.
