Wealth researcher: "You will hardly find anyone on the Forbes list who became rich investing in stocks." Thoughts? - Wealth researcher Rainer Zitelmann: "Yes, Warren Buffett is sometimes mentioned as an exception, but he is indeed an atypical investor in many ways and known for his active investment approach. Besides ... See More Buffett, you will find **very few individuals** on the Forbes list who haven't become wealthy through entrepreneurship and owning their own companies.

There is a dissertation that was conducted at the University of Potsdam, which scientifically examined how the wealthy achieved their wealth. The findings once again confirm that the majority of them have become rich as **entrepreneurs**. Indeed, 48 percent of respondents stated that real estate also played a significant role in wealth accumulation, but only 10 percent considered real estate as the most crucial factor in their wealth generation.

**Only 2.7 percent** of the surveyed wealthy individuals mentioned that stocks played a significant role in their wealth accumulation, making it a small minority among the respondents. I'm not discouraging investments in stocks; in fact, quite the opposite. I recommend everyone to consider a savings plan in a passive ETF. However, trying to get rich solely by investing in individual stocks can be challenging in the long term. While some may experience temporary success in a bull market or due to luck, I remain skeptical about its sustainability.

Last year, I gave a presentation to 250 ardent stock enthusiasts, and during the talk, I asked who among them had become wealthy through investing in stocks. With "wealthy," I mean not less than one million. **Not a single person raised his hand**. Now, you might argue that there were maybe a few who hesitated to share that publicly, but their reaction aligns with both my personal experience and scientific research."

Nearly 94 percent of Warren Buffett's wealth was earned after he turned 60! - Although Buffett was extremely successful before the age of 60 -- his net worth was a noted **$376 million** when he was 52 years old -- 99 percent of his wealth came after he turned 50. ... See More The perfect example of the powerful snowball effect over time.

As time progresses, the exponential growth becomes more evident. The initial growth may seem slow, but as the investment horizon extends, the effect gathers momentum, significantly accelerating the growth of the investment.

However, it's worth mentioning that Buffett's first $1,000,000 in 1960 is equivalent in purchasing power to about **$10,000,000 today**. So from today's purchasing power perspective, he actually became a millionaire in his twenties.

The German energy ... See More giant scrapped its profit guidance in late June, citing a “substantial increase in failure rates of wind turbine components” at its wind division Siemens Gamesa.

Siemens Energy CEO Christian Bruch told journalists on a call Friday that “too much had been swept under the carpet” at Siemens Gamesa and that the quality issues were “more severe than \[he\] thought possible.”


Other wind companies also saw shares retreat as investors worried that the problems at Gamesa might be a symptom of a wider issue for the industry.


The wind industry has expanded rapidly over the past two decades, lowering costs to rival — and sometimes undercut — those of fossil fuels, while boosting efficiency with ever-bigger turbines and reducing reliance on state subsidies.

“These cost reductions have been achieved with innovations in turbine technology and by pushing the boundaries of engineering.

Questions about stock market for a beginner - Hello, I have been dabbling with stocks and investing a little here and they're over the last year and a half. I am slowly starting to learn a little about investing, but still am pretty clueless. I am guessing Cash App is ... See More not the best app for investing/buying stocks. I have a couple questions, and would really appreciate it if anyone could answer or give me advice. I am looking for penny stocks (or cheap, but willing to spend more if worth it) that pay out either frequent dividends (weekly-monthly, depending on the amount) or pay out higher dividends monthly-quarterly. I am particularly interested in pharmaceutical companies, but am open to other types of stocks too. Other than dividends, what are other ways people make money, or come out ahead with the stock market/crypto currency? Is there a simple app (and easy to use/navigate, that is 100% legit and not a scam/rip off) that I can use like a savings account that pays high interest (also, how does that work?)? I'm a newbie and really need to get started on this. Any advice or suggestions welcome, please be respectful (to me and all that take the time to comment on this post :)
