Do you know what the average Wall Street salary is?

$399,000. ^[1]  

Yep.

The average Wall Street guy takes home almost half a million bucks a year.

Do you know why they get paid that much?

It’s pretty simple.

Because they help people get rich.

However, here’s the little secret most people don’t know:

They’re not very good at it.

Pretty terrible at it, actually.

In fact, what if I told you, you’re actually a better investor than most money managers on Wall Street?

Because you are. 

And I can prove it.

Here's a story:

Warren Buffett, arguably the greatest investor in history, had always been an outspoken critic of Wall Street.

He claimed they charged obscene management fees, and didn't actually do anything worth paying for.

Wall Street would always hit back and say it wasn’t true. 

So he decided to settle it.

In 2008, he offered an open $1 million bet to all hedge funds.

He said that even with their fancy analysts and computer programs and Harvard graduates, they wouldn’t be able to outperform the stock market average over the next 10 years.

Wall Street took the bet.

It ended in 2018.

Want to guess who won?

The average. ^[2]  

That’s right.

The Wall Street guys getting paid millions in fees to make everyone rich couldn't even beat the stock market average. 

They were literally getting paid $399,000 a year to lose money.

Like I said - you’re a better investment manager than they are.

Here's why:

Anyone (yes, even you and me) can invest in a stock market index fund in twenty seconds with a few swipes of our phone. 

An index fund is a very simple fund that invests in the entire stock market, meaning it guarantees you a return equal to the stock market average.

That means in less than twenty seconds each payday, you could have invested some of your paycheck in an index fund and outperformed the average hedge fund on Wall Street!

Sounds crazy, right?

Your whole life you've probably been thinking:

Surely the stock market is super complicated!

Everyone says it’s risky!

Your aunt lost her life savings in stocks and it ruined her life!

Well, you were right. But you were only half right.

Stocks can be risky, and it's true that people lose money all the time.

But that's because they treat the stock market like a casino.

Did you know - a survey in Hong Kong showed over 70% of respondents bought Alibaba stock because they read on social media that “it was a good stock”?

40% of people bought it because “a friend” told them they would make money if they did.

This is no different to putting your life savings on a horse at the track, because “your friend's uncle” said it would win.

It’s no surprise these people lose money! 

Like most things in life, there’s a right way, and a wrong way.

If you take the time to learn how the stock market works, you'll find it's very simple to get started, and it's not complicated at all. 

It's actually painfully simple.

So simple, you can outperform most Wall Street managers with a single swipe of your phone.

And for an informed, sensible investor, the stock market is one of the most powerful and reliable ways to build wealth available today.

No prior investing experience is needed  - the course has been designed for absolute beginners - people who have never bought a stock or even looked at the stock market in their life.

Why learn from me?

I’ve spent the last 15 years dedicated to learning from the best investors in history - thousands of hours spent reading their books, studying their portfolios, listening to their interviews and lectures, and analysing their favourite investments trying to figure out what makes them great. 

Of course I’ve made many mistakes and bad investments over those years, but with a little patience and hard work, I gradually learned how to build a thriving portfolio. 

Today, I am blessed to have retired on my stock portfolio in my thirties.

While Wall Street might have convinced you the stock market is too complicated for regular people like you and me (and we should just pay them to manage our money for us) it's not the case at all. 

As long as you can read, add, subtract, and use a computer, investing is a skill you can learn and learn well, just like anything else.

My prior career as a Chartered Accountant and my love for teaching has given me the unique opportunity to put together a course like this for you. 

In Simple Stocks, I've put together what I believe is the basic foundation of good investing, in a way that even a 12 year old could learn.

If you're new to stocks, it's perfect for you, but if you have some experience with stocks already, you'll still find value in it too.

Access is instant and there are no upsells inside - you get full lifetime access to all lessons for the one low price.

Investing is a life-long journey, and of course, every journey must start with a single step.

And it’s truer with investing than with any other journey - the earlier you start, the greater the fruits.

Whether you start that journey with Simple Stocks or somewhere else, I’m happy. As long as you start today!

Of course, we’d love to have you here.
