Cover of the guide The 7 Deadly Sins of Investors

Most investors do not lose money because they are foolish.
They lose it because they repeat the same mistakes

“Guaranteed” returns with no risk. An adviser who “takes care of everything”. The investment everybody is talking about. Over years in private banking and M&A we have seen hundreds of stories, and the same patterns come back again and again.

What you will
find inside

01

Chasing a guaranteed return

When somebody promises a certain return with no risk, the risk is you.

02

Blind trust in an adviser

A doctor treats you. Most advisers sell to you.

03

Investing money you need

Invest your reserve and you will be selling at the worst possible moment.

04

Ignoring the fees

2% a year is hundreds of thousands over 20 years. Quietly, relentlessly.

05

FOMO investing

By the time everybody is talking about an investment, it is late.

06

Everything on one card

One basket, one fall, no plan B.

07

Having no exit plan

Without a plan you buy dear and sell cheap.

Psychology

Why each sin is so tempting, and how the mind rationalises it.

Real numbers

What it costs in practice. Market data, not scaremongering.

The antidote

Specific steps for avoiding the sin. Ready to use straight away.
