🍾 Ça y est, "Gagner en bourse sans se fatiguer" est là ! C'est une adaptation en français de "De hangmatbelegger", paru l'année passée en néerlandais et vendu à plus de 15 000 exemplaires en Flandre et aux Pays-Bas. Je vis à Bruxelles et j'ai grandi en partie en France. Il était donc important pour moi de publier le livre en français. Après tout, l'ETF reste un outil super puissant pour améliorer ta santé financière, que tu habites aux Pays-Bas, en Belgique ou en France. Et mon co-auteur Tim était bien sûr d'accord 🙂 Qu'apprendras-tu en lisant le livre ? Notre but était d'écrire le guide pratique pour commencer ton investissement dans les ETF. On ne couvre pas seulement le pourquoi, mais aussi le comment : fiscalité, choix de courtier, exemples de portefeuilles d'ETF... Dans l'investissement, même les petits détails peuvent avoir des conséquences, surtout les aspects fiscaux. 🔥 Veux-tu l'acheter pour toi, ou bien l'offrir en cadeau à un proche ? France 👉 https://lnkd.in/e2DdYyJn (FNAC), https://lnkd.in/e8bzrFjq (Amazon) ou bien ta libraire de préférence Belgique 👉 https://lnkd.in/eRtw4zBB (Éditions Racine) 🙋♂️ Déjà lu le livre ? Je suis curieux de savoir ce que tu en penses !
