I love your energy man. Another great video, keep it up!

[Paul-tmxt]

New sub from uk…great content looking forward to 2025 content Kai

[kobo]

I'd like to hear your opinion on the XTB broker. From what I heard, they are available in most European countries.

[AndreMonthy]

15:18. This in not always true. I hold some GDX & GDXJ ETF positions in etoro with no leverage (1x) and it still is a CFD, not the underlying.

Tranding 212 não tem como alterar a moeda de euros pra dólares não consigo

[Dinesh-Kumar]

You mentioned that you tried to transfer stocks from trading 212 to interactive brokers and you stated it did not work can you elaborate on it or a s small demo would be great thanks.

And a have a great new year.

[javierordi]

[survivorhistory]

[oscartbow]

Are you not concerned that trading 212 protection for Europeans is only 20k euros?

[MetalShuba]

Hi there ... how about AdmiralMarkets in Europe ?

[guillemviol]

Hi Kai! Really good video. One question regarding eToro. As you show in the video, you are a gold member. However, only Platinum+ members get the invitation to sports events. Could you explain that a little bit? Many thanks!

[johnpale]

Hello kai.thank you for all informations you give us about all investments and brokers.i would like to show us how to transfer funds from revolut to trading 212.Thank you very much keep the good work and happy New year and big profits!!!

[daniilzof]

Hello Kai so basically if we want to have peace of mind for the long run we also should ensure that we buy stocks or derivatives from well known stock exchanges such as NYSE, NASDAQ, FTSE etc?

[anuchueekene]

What do you think about scalable capital

[YiannisKs]

Thanks Kai for another very informative video. Could you be ever so kind to tell me which report (out of so many) is the right one for tax purposes on interactive Brokers. Thanks in advance.

[dzanko]

Hi Kai great video. Would you be comfortable holding a larger portfolio on the t212 app, for example 100k-150k euros? I would like to have all of my investing on the same broker.
