About Me

About Sebastiaan de Bont

I’m Sebastiaan de Bont, a passionate investor whose journey began at age 12, when I made my first stock market investments using my mother’s inheritance. That early experience sparked a lifelong dedication to understanding and mastering the art of investing.

I studied economics at Erasmus University in Rotterdam and went on to work with leading asset managers in the Netherlands, Ireland, and Hong Kong, serving institutional investors across global markets. I’m also a proud CFA charterholder, including a Sustainable Investing Certificate.

Today, my mission is to help both individuals and companies make smarter investment decisions. Beyond my professional work, I find immense joy in guiding others toward financial success—whether through teaching investment courses, offering wealth guidance, or sharing insights in my book and quarterly newsletter.

My approach to money is simple: investing is the most reliable path to building wealth. A happy financial life doesn’t come from luck in the markets—it comes from how you make decisions and respond to challenges. You can’t control market movements or other people’s actions, but you can control your strategy, your habits, and your mindset.

You already have the resources within you. Often, it just takes a bit more financial understanding and a few small changes to make a dramatic difference. My goal is to make your journey to financial freedom as seamless and empowering as possible.
