Over the last 20 years, the US dollar lost 40% of its purchasing power, whereas the stock market gained 350%!

This was the difference between keeping your hard-earned savings as cash or invested in stocks 👇

Markets and the economy make a tremendous difference.

They impact your retirement, your mortgage, your job, and your money.

(Whether you want it or not).

Yet, many people are unaware of this!

They don’t understand what’s happening with their money.

They don’t know how to
save and invest.
They don’t know how markets work or what investment opportunities they offer.
They don't know the risks behind various financial products.

Most people are not in control of their money and rely on governments and pension funds to make right decisions for them.

This can potentially lead to

costly mistakes,

missed opportunities,

disappointment,

and stress...

In a world of money printing, bank defaults, higher rates, and inflation, how do you know you’re making the right decisions?

Taking action is not easy.

After all, where do you start?

Good luck figuring it all out...

1. IT'S OVERWHELMING!!


Too many different markets and products.

It's unclear how it all works and ties together, and where to get started.

2. It'S CoMpL3x


Lots of jargon and slang, it's all cryptic and vague...

You go down the rabbit hole, but it only makes the problem worse! Now you're even more confused than before you started 🥴

3. It's time-consuuuuuuuuuming...


You can learn it all yourself, but it might take years to get to some basic level of understanding of how it works.

In the meantime, investment decisions get postponed, opportunities missed, time wasted.

There is nothing more frustrating than calculating how much you could've earned if you took action earlier.

(That's why this course exists! 👇)

Imagine if you could:

1.

Access an industry-level financial training and learn from the experts.

2.

Understand how markets work and what drives them in just 20 hours. (That's roughly two seasons of your favourite Netflix show)

3.

Learn just the most relevant and important bits, without unnecessary fluff or complexity.

4.

Benefit from a single roadmap covering multiple aspects of financial markets and economics.

5.

Get comfortable with financial products and understand the risks behind investing.

6.

Increase your confidence when making investment decisions and build a solid foundation for long-term financial success.

7.

Save time and frustration from trying to piece it all together yourself and spend more time doing what you love ❤️

8.

Learn complex financial theories in a super-fun, interesting, and engaging way.

9.

Do it all on the go, via mobile!
No need to dedicate special time. Complete the course on your train journey to work!

Don't wait for someone to translate the markets for you.

Who is this course for?

Working and Busy Professionals:
  • You have a stable job and income, and you want to build an investment portfolio for greater financial security.
  • You're interested in learning about markets but too busy to go through countless books, blogs, videos, and other materials.


Prudent Savers:
  • You worked hard to save money, but in a world of money printing and inflation, your savings were diluted and inflated away.
  • You're looking for better ways to protect your capital and achieve long-term growth.


Beginner Investors:
  • You have savings, but avoided investing due to the risk of losing money.
  • You want to better understand the markets, risks, and returns, so you can invest more confidently and make your money work for you.


Retail Traders and Investors:
  • You're an active trader or investor with expertise in a specific area.
  • You want to expand your knowledge of other asset classes and macroeconomic factors to complement your trading.
Students:
  • You have a finance interview or an internship coming up and need to be on top of how the industry and markets work (and FAST!)
  • Finance is a highly competetive sector. You want to differentiate yourself from other candidates and give yourself the highest chance of success.


Recent Graduates and Young Professionals:
  • In today's competetive world, you see investing as an important skill and want to start early.
  • You're looking for a crash course to quickly learn about markets and establish a strong foundation from the start.


Finance Professionals:
  • You work in the financial industry, but not directly within the markets.
  • You're looking to improve your market knowledge to help with a promotion or to transition into a higher-paying role within the markets.

Who is this course NOT for?

This course isn't for everyone, and it's not for you if:

❌ You're looking for a magic pill or quick shortcut to become a financial markets expert overnight. Like any skill, it takes time, effort, and practice. You have to put in the work.


❌ You believe financial markets is some sort of a get-rich-quick scheme. The chances of that happening are similar to winning a lottery. It takes time for returns to compound and amount to something meaningful over the long-term.

❌ You're searching for day-trading ideas, secret formulas, trading signals, or profitable strategies that "just work" and tell you what to buy or sell without you putting in any effort. If only it was that simple...


❌ You're looking for a personal finance course to help your organize your personal spending and money.

Created by a real human being!

No added artificial intelligence.

(Only naturally occurring knowledge and experience)

The course is delivered by Sergei Perfiliev:

What differentiates this course from others?

There are many financial courses out there:

❌ Some are too complex.

❌ Some go into unnecessary products and topics.

❌ Some bombard you with dry information.

❌ Some just list financial products without explaining why they exist or why they're needed.

❌ Some overcomplicate things on purpose to give you an illusion of value.

But if something is complex and painful, it doesn't necessarily mean it's valuable!

On the contrary - it takes effort to simplify things and make them easy to understand.

We took a different approach.

Here is what makes our course unique:

1. Comprehensive:

  • Covers the four main investment product categories and demonstrates how they fit in the context of the wider economy and central bank policies.
  • Explores the relationships and dynamics between markets and macroeconomic drivers.
  • Focuses on what's truly important without going into unnecessary details.

2. All in One Place:

  • Combines a wide range of financial topics and themes into a single training.
  • Saves time and effort from having to collect important financial knowledge in bits and pieces.
  • Offers a one-stop-shop solution for anyone looking to break into markets and investing.

3. Easy to Understand:

  • Includes stories, examples, graphs, infographics, diagrams, memes and much more!
  • Gives you an important context behind products and investments.
  • Complex ideas are built from the ground up and introduced gradually.

Features and benefits of an online course:

Full access to recorded lectures and over 1,100 slides.

Flexible learning. Fit the course into your schedule with our user-friendly online platform.

Accessible anywhere. Learn markets on your phone during your train journey to work!
