At a point like this, when the pressure is already on you to retire, its best recommended you seek the services of an advisor, as this allows you make smarter investing decisions.

If you lack market knowledge, your best bet is to seek advice or support from a consultant or investing coach. Contacting a consultant may sound simple, but it's how I've managed to stay afloat in the market and increase my portfolio to roughly 60% early this year. It is, in my opinion, the best way to get started in the industry right now.

I've been looking to get one, but have been kind of relaxed about it. Could you recommend your advis0r? I'll be happy to use some help.

*Jennifer Leigh Hickman* is the licensed advisor I use. Just search the name. You’d find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment.

I'm impressed with the recommended advisor's prompt response and expertise. Their clarity and professionalism instilled confidence from the start. Excited to explore opportunities together!

Well the Euro also lost 10% compared to the Swiss Franc. So if you bought stuff for €100 that used to be 110 CHF, now it's €116 and 116 CHF. So the price increase is only 5% in CHF.

@@R3lay0 But food is also less expensive in EU countries compared to the US, even with the price hike over the last year. Food prices are less likely to go up a lot in countries where it's already expensive to begin with, and that's the case in Switzerland and the US. Still thought, that doesn't mean consumers don't feel it because you get used to something, regardless of how much it cost, so any price hike is always felt, even if the starting base was lower than the above 2 countries.

Not anymore, man. I use to buy in France from Geneva. It’s not profitable at this date. You might save maybe 10 bucks, but now some things are more expensive in Germany and France than here in Switzerland 🇨🇭

Staying in touch with a financial advisor was my effective strategy. During the pandemic, I outperformed the market, earning about $200k in four months. Its been a remarkable few years for me with my advisor .

I wholeheartedly agree, which is why I choose to delegate my daily decisions to a supervisor. Their specialised knowledge, research, and risk management skills make it challenging for them to underperform. They focus on utilising risk for its asymmetrical potential while mitigating downsides. I've been with my supervisor for over two years and have earned over a quarter-million dolars.

Switzerland does not use gas to generate electricity

Common sense!

Switzerland laughs in money. Credit Suisse failing didn't amount to much and was never going to. You think billionaires were pulling their money out of a safe haven and moving it back to their home country to get taxed. A bank run was never going to happen, because the rich knew they didn't need to run and if they don't run, they would get bailed out, and that's why the economy wasn't hit as hard as people thought it would. Lo and behold, UBS bailed them out and all the billionaires' monies were safe. Billionaires have their wealth stored in multiple safe havens to distribute the risk, they were never moving it to put it all in one basket. The Swiss government would also never let it fall, because they need to retain their reputation for banking to keep the rich flowing money into their bank. I don't understand why people struggle to understand this when it's so simple that even I understood this right at the start.

@@idkimlikereallybored9533why dont you just buy things in italy? Its like 5km away

😂😂😂

so what? the monthly salary is also double to triple

you need to know where to buy...

Take advice from someone who can't spell the name of the country... This information is wrong. Salary might be double or triple but I can guarantee prices (apartment, fuel, electricity, food) are far from being double, maybe +10-50% tops.

@@19scamps92 please read, I’m saying that the prices in general already were a lot higher BEFORE inflation. Not recent price hikes

I lived and worked 2 years in Switzerland. I worked there because you make more money. That is because the taxes are lower. Unlike the Netherlands. The Dutch tax rates are insane. They even have a wealth tax. Meaning if you have 100k in the bank you pay a fixed tax rate on it. Even if the money is your retirement savings. Insane. Great country for poor people and refugees.
