For many migrants being in Germany is a largely financial decision: you are looking for a better work-life balance coupled with better remuneration, opening up possibilities to save more, travel, invest, etc. However, although it may seem that you are in the right country, it is useless if you do not make the right decisions, or if you do not know the system and its advantages.
I have always been very cautious about what to do with my money, wanting to spend as little as possible, but in doing so I restricted myself a lot or felt guilty, sometimes unnecessarily.
Since meeting the Finance for Latinos team, I have started to improve my relationship with money and feel more optimistic about the goals I can achieve. They have made me question things I thought were impossible, like buying real estate in Germany, or made me consider things I may not have thought about, like investing in funds for my old age, or having disability insurance.
Maurice, Johanna and the rest of the team have always given me and my husband the best energy, clarifying all the doubts and making us feel that we were making the right decision.
I remember that when I heard about financial advisors my first reaction was to think that this only applied to people with very high incomes or economic stability, and that I was not there yet. However, in a time of crisis and high uncertainty, having someone you trust to talk to about finances made a huge difference. That is why I recommend any Spanish-speaking migrant in Germany, regardless of their current situation, to get advice from this great team at Finance for Latinos.
