Certainly, you can make money as a trader, but generally, professional traders make money because they’re investing huge sums for other people that are hedging across investment products and markets.

They’re not looking to build a nest egg or achieve generational wealth.

Trading is an up and down ride that even takes its toll on professional traders. Most of the floor managers on major exchanges are usually “old” by the time they reach their mid-30s.

When I first started getting involved in investing, I approached as an engineer, since that was how I was trained.

Also, as a German, we view the market as a long-term growth vehicle and many Europeans don’t see the markets like Americans do. They’re more conservative by nature.

So when I started, I began exploring how to find the best stocks in the markets over the long term. Then I looked at what characteristics they all shared.

After that, it was putting my new theory to the test – find the sectors that will be dominant for the next decade or more, then find the best stocks in those sectors.

And then, let them do their thing.

As you can see above, it’s not a straight line up, but the upward trend is certainly present.

It was that realization that inspired me to figure out if I could find a way to pick great long-term growth stocks without having to manage a S&P 500 proxy of stocks.

And after decades, I accomplished it.

For the past 30 years, I have used my MegaTrends philosophy and my Trendsetter Strategy to build highly resilient portfolios that not only outperform the broader indexes, but also have less volatility.

Today in the US, we have four products built especially for US investors using the same system I’ve been using in Europe for decades to great success.
