Aktienstammtisch: Finanzielle Freiheit und Anlagestrategien
Aktienstammtisch: Finanzielle Freiheit und Anlagestrategien
Liebe Finanzfreunde, ❄️🍷 Gibt es etwas Schöneres in der kalten Jahreszeit, als sich mit Gleichgesinnten in einem gemütlichen Lokal über Finanzen und das Leben auszutauschen? Im Vergleich zu einem gewöhnlichen Stammtisch werden wir verschiedene kulinarische Insidertipps Berlins erkunden – sei es italienisch, spanisch, chinesisch oder japanisch – und gleichzeitig wertvolle Geheimtipps für deinen Weg zu finanzieller und persönlicher Freiheit entdecken. **Themen, über die wir sprechen werden:** * Finanzielle Freiheit * Anlagestrategien bei Aktien * Kryptowährungen * Immobilieninvestitionen * Offene Fragen und persönliche Erfahrungen 🕒 **Zeit:** Ab 18:30 Uhr 📍 **Ort:** China Restaurant HuaTing, Strausberger Pl. 13, 10243 Berlin Steig ein – kulinarisch und finanziell! Beste Grüße, Euer Aktien für Alle Team ========================================== **Wer wir sind:** Wir sind eine vielfältige Gruppe von Menschen, die entdeckt haben, dass strategisches Aktienhandeln für jeden zugänglich ist. Unser Ziel ist es, unsere gemeinsame Erfahrung zu teilen und Anfänger im Aktienhandel zu inspirieren, sich sinnvoll und emotionsfrei zu investieren. Wir glauben fest an das Konzept des gegenseitigen Lernens – indem wir dir helfen, lernen auch wir von dir, und schaffen so eine Win-Win-Situation für alle. **Was wir glauben:** * Erfolgreiches Aktienhandeln ist keine exklusive Domäne für Finanzexperten. * Das Verstehen von Aktien und das Treffen informierter Anlageentscheidungen ist für jeden erreichbar. * Du benötigst keinen Abschluss in Betriebswirtschaft, um die Prinzipien der Wertanlage zu verstehen. * Technische Aktienanalyse ist nicht nur für Finanzprofis gedacht; es ist eine Fähigkeit, die du erlernen kannst. **Über die Meetup Gruppe:** Shuying hat Mitte 2023 selbst ihren Weg zur erfolgreichen Anlegerin gefunden – von frustriert und überfordert zur begeisterten Aktieninvestorin mit Fokus auf Chartanalyse. Inspiriert durch die Methode von Raik Mandel gründete sie diese Meetup-Gruppe, um andere auf ihrem Weg zu mehr Selbstvertrauen, Klarheit und finanzieller Freiheit zu unterstützen. **Über Raik Mandel:** Raik hat mehr als 25 Jahre Erfahrung als Bauunternehmer, Immobilieninvestor und Aktionär. Seine Leidenschaft hat sich inzwischen mehr auf die Börse verlagert, da dies weniger Zeitaufwand erfordert, flexibler ist und auch in fallenden Märkten Gewinne ermöglicht. Er hat sich auf einfache Aktienanalysen mithilfe der Chartanalyse spezialisiert. Raik war langjähriges Mitglied im IIC (Immobilien Investment Club), ist Mitglied im IVD (Immobilien Verband Deutschland), im VTAD (Vereinigung technischer Analysten Deutschlands e. V.). Neben Aktien und Immobilien sind IPO's, Optionen und Kryptowährungen auch relevante Themenbereiche.

From Stability to Stewardship

A Biblical & Practical Path to Financial Freedom
From Stability to Stewardship A Biblical & Practical Path to Financial Freedom
This is not just a money class. This is a restoration space. The I AM Worthy of Ownership™ Path is a 12-step, sister-centered journey for women who are ready to build financial stability without shame, fear, or pressure—and to do it in a way that honors both wisdom and the spirit. Many women don’t struggle with money because they lack discipline or intelligence. They struggle because of unhealed experiences, survival patterns, and the quiet belief that they are “behind” or “disqualified.” This series gently challenges those beliefs while offering practical tools for peace, clarity, and long-term planning. Together, we will talk honestly about: Releasing shame and money anxiety Building stability as a form of self-respect and spiritual discipline Understanding money as a tool, not a source of worth Managing debt with clarity instead of condemnation Preparing for life’s unexpected moments without fear Laying a calm foundation for future ownership and legacy Each session blends practical financial education with reflection, conversation, and encouragement. There is no pressure to share personal numbers or experiences. You are welcome to speak, journal quietly, or simply listen. This is not about hustle. This is not about perfection. This is about alignment, wisdom, and peace. Who this series is for: Women who are starting over or rebuilding Women who want stability without stress Women preparing for future ownership or housing decisions Women who want their financial lives to reflect wholeness, not fear No prior financial knowledge is required. Come as you are. Bring a notebook. Leave a little lighter than you arrived. Light refreshments will be served along with 30 minutes of networking.

Turning Rentals Into Income: How Investors Pay Off Properties Faster
Turning Rentals Into Income: How Investors Pay Off Properties Faster
#### Turning Rentals Into Income: How Investors Pay Off Properties Faster #### **Featuring Guest Speaker: John Blackburn** **👉 Get your FREE TICKET [HERE](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/turning-rentals-into-income-how-investors-pay-off-properties-faster-tickets-1980492192461?aff=cicmeetupapp)** #### A lot of people get into real estate because they want freedom. Then they buy a rental…and realize most of the rent goes straight to the bank. They technically own property, but the mortgage controls the income. And waiting 30 years for properties to be paid off doesn’t feel realistic. This meetup is about understanding a different way to think about rental properties… one that focuses on paying them off sooner so the income is actually usable. **Featured Guest Speaker: John Blackburn** We’re excited to welcome John Blackburn as our guest speaker for this event. John has been actively investing in real estate since 2006 and has: * Been involved in **5,000+ real estate transactions** * Helped investors **acquire over $150 million in rental property** * **Raised more than $100 million** in private capital John didn’t start with family money or shortcuts. He built his portfolio by focusing on clear systems, real numbers, and long-term strategy. For this meetup, John will walk through how investors shift their focus from simply owning rentals to building properties that eventually pay them…without a mortgage attached. **What You’ll Learn** John will break down, in simple terms: * Why most rental properties don’t produce much usable income early on * Why buying more rentals isn’t always the answer * How investors structure their properties to pay off mortgages in a fraction of the time * How properties can work together to eliminate debt faster * What changes once rentals become free and clear This approach is often referred to as an accelerated paydown strategy — using rental income intentionally to reduce debt sooner, rather than waiting decades for mortgages to run their course. John will also share a simple calculator you can use to see how this works with real numbers and realistic scenarios. **The Core Idea** When a rental has a mortgage, the rent has one job: **pay the bank.** When a rental is paid off, the rent has a different job: **pay you.** Most people only see one timeline…30 years. This session shows how investors shorten that timeline and gradually increase their income as properties become free and clear. **Who This Event Is For** This event is for people who want more than just “owning rentals” on paper. * Rental owners who are tired of most of the rent going to the bank and want a clearer path to real, usable income * New investors who want to understand how rental properties actually build wealth over time before jumping in * People with capital who want to invest in real estate with intention and a long-term plan * Anyone serious about freedom and curious how rental properties transition from debt-heavy assets into income-producing ones **Event Details** **Location:** Ohio Brewing Company - 421 E 2nd Ave, Columbus, OH 43201 **Date & Time:** January 25th, 6–8 PM (Doors open at 5:30) **Cost:** Free (Seats are limited - RSVP required) **👉 Get your FREE TICKET [HERE](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/turning-rentals-into-income-how-investors-pay-off-properties-faster-tickets-1980492192461?aff=cicmeetupapp)** If you’ve ever wondered how rental properties actually turn into freedom —this is the room to be in.
