Hi everyone! First post on here!
Basically, I’m a British expat living in Italy and I’ve been investing with eToro and Trading 212 (built up 5K-ish portfolio with them) for some time, but I’m hearing a lot of stories that I don’t like. I intend to invest long term (20/30 years minimum) and am now worrying about the money that I’ve already invested.
I’m planning to look into IBKR and DeGiro, as many people seem to invest with them long term, but my questions are:
1) What’s the best way to go about investing when I’m not 100% sure if I’ll still be in the country in 10 years?
2) What’s my best way of going about getting that money back from eToro? I’m quite in the red, like everyone at the moment, so is it better - just to wait a year or 2 for the current worldwide economic crisis to sort itself out (we hope!) or better to slowly sell my positions over the next year or so and reinvest that money in IBKR or DeGiro’s platform?
Thanks in advance!
