I’m a long-term growth and dividend-growth investor covering both US and European equity markets. I seek undervalued stocks and high-quality dividend growers that generate dependable cash flow for reinvestment. I share one of my portfolios on eToro where I qualified as a popular investor. Through years of experience, I’ve learned that sustained profitability—evident in strong margins, stable and expanding free cash flow, and high returns on invested capital—is a more reliable driver of returns than valuation alone. I hold three degrees that sharpen both my quantitative rigor and my capacity for big-picture thinking: Economics, Classical Philology (Latin & Greek), Philosophy & Theology.This interdisciplinary foundation enhances my ability to distill complex market narratives and to analyze companies through both numerical and humanistic lenses.I started investing the day I became a father—I wanted to consider what I’d leave my children, not merely in wealth but in the freedom that responsible stewardship provides. I believe there are things more important than money (“man does not live by bread alone.”). Yet, by managing wisely what I receive and earn, I aim to ensure for me and my children that we don't have so much that we don't have to do anything, but that we have enough assets to be free to do what we want. The goal is not to free myself from work, but to make sure I can work in the place and in a way where I can fully express myself.
