Starting today.That's exactly what this episode is about.A complete step-by-step guide on how to start investing for your kids — even if you've never done it before, even if you start with €20, and even if your child was born yesterday.Because here's the numbers:Invest €100/month from the day your child is born at an average return of 7% —You put in €21,600 of your own money.They receive over €42,000 at 18.That's compound interest.Einstein called it the 8th wonder of the world.And it works exactly the same for your child's future.When my niece was born, I did exactly what I tell my clients to do.I forced my brother to open a brokerage account in her name.Wired the first €500 myself.And before she could even walk — she was already investing.In this episode, I walk you through the full 6-step framework:→ Set the goal — first home, education, first car? Put a real number on it.→ Choose the right account — Junior Depot, custodial accounts, what to look for→ Build the right portfolio — how your time horizon changes everything→ Invest regularly — small amounts, automated, that you won't even feel→ Educate them — it's not just the interest that compounds. It's the mindset.→ Monitor, don't obsess — studies show the best-performing investor group is dead people. They just left the money alone.Plus the platforms I actually recommend.The best time to start was the day they were born.The second best time is today.
