We are at a point on which we might see the US confiscating stocks or assets from European holders.

Especially if you are vulnerable, please be sure that your stocks are not overvaluing the USA and that your assets are not under the jurisdiction of Trump or it's boot licker.

Here are my personal rules for my investments.

Be Shure to:

1. Avoid ETFs and funds that are heavily invested in U.S. stocks, such as World or All World (73% USA) without "excluding US"

2. Use European ETF providers, brokers, stocks and banks instead of U.S.-based ones to keep your assets under EU jurisdiction and lower US confiscation risk.

3. Hold cash reserves in euros, Swiss francs, or gold instead of US dollars to avoid potential currency restrictions and the massive devaluation if the US dollar loses its world trade currency status.

4. Choose physically replicating, low-cost ETFs from good European providers, since they hold the actual underlying assets and minimize counterparty risks. [1]

@nimi Die gesetzliche Rentenversicherung ist deutlich riskanter als ein Welt-ETF-Sparplan. Wie hoch sind die Beiträge im nächsten Jahr? Wann steigt wieder das Renteneintrittsalter? Reicht die Rente überhaupt? Wer zahlt in die Rente, wenn wir remigrieren und lieber technologieoffen bleiben, statt Wohlstand zu erwirtschaften?

Was nicht sein muss: dass wir das gesamte Vermögen einem einzelnen privaten Vermögensverwalter überlassen.
