You do not have to live overseas to use an stock market investing system that is ideal for expats (expatriates). It is what you; many expats and I have in common which defines what the appropriate investing strategy is for you. So, what do we have in common that is of interest here?

You and most expats are not an investing expert

Except for those among us that have jobs in the financial markets, you have no time to study everything that has to do with investing in the stock market, or even in other markets. You have your own profession and it takes most of your energy to balance that job and your private life.

So, having that hectic life, you cannot expect of yourself to become an investing expert.

It hurts that your hard-earned savings get such a miserable interest

You have a decent salary and built up quite some savings. It doesn’t make you filthy rich, but you can live well while continue to build this nest-egg. It just hurt, however, to see that these hard-earned savings are collecting, by lack of having time to look for a solid alternative, only a few miserable percentages interest.

And putting your savings on a bank account in Iceland is also no alternative anymore.

You and most expats want to keep using the bank and broker that you trust

Over time, you have selected and used for years now the same bank for your current and savings accounts. This could be the bank in your home town or home country or in a place where you lived before. Maybe you are using also a particular online broker for your stock market investments that you trust and that you have experience with.

You do your business with these companies, with these people, because you trust them. They are maybe not perfect but they are currently the best choice for you.

You would feel very hesitant to transfer substantial amounts of your savings to unfamiliar companies or institutes, just because they promise higher returns. And if you don’t: remember “the bankrupt banks of Iceland” and “the pyramid scheme from Madeoff”.

Please share with us your system of investing that takes into account that you are not an expert, that give you a better return than the miserable interest on a savings account and that enables you keep using your existing broker or bank?
