Fair, free & honest advice

I work for only one: you. I am not tied to a bank or insurance company.

Decode the financial system in Germany

It can be hard to figure out your finances in Germany: There's the pension system, social security and a confusing variety of service and product offerings. I tell you what you need to know: how to invest intelligently in your personal situation, what tax optimizations really pay off for you, which insurances you actually need - and which ones you don't.

Fully digital - and yet personal

You can reach me at any time from anywhere in the world. We always have an overview of your assets and all documents via app.

Let me handle it for you.

Life changes. And German bureaucracy will always set up new hurdles. Whenever you can use a helping hand, I am there for you. We handle your financial stuff.

Sebastian took a lot of time for us during the first conversation (and the following, too). Even at the most impossible times of the day. He puts a lot of emphasis on explaining the details of personal finance. We are not experts ourselves and that helps enormously.
