ABOUT THE MASCOT
Fat Fish Are Opportunities To Turn 1 Month Of Expenses Into 1 Year Of Freedom.
Find Fat Fish® is personal training for personal finance.
I will help you catch Your First Stock®, then build your own portfolio, replacing needless fear with fact-based faith, going on offense without sacrificing your defense, until you've learned to fish forever and don't need me or anyone. (If, and only if, you’re ready.)
ABOUT THE MISSION
I’m here to elevate the global standard of amateur investing, starting with the people who need these skills most urgently.
So I help wannabe retirees (stuck muttering “I work because I have to, not because I want to”) make more by investing as a hobby than they earn in their jobs (this is at times an understatement) so they can retire on their terms and conquer the terror of outliving their money.
ABOUT THE FLOUNDER
I am Cole Hauptfuhrer, Chief Executive Fishmonger of Find Fat Fish, author of 12 Steps To Your First Stock, vagabonding speaker (NZ, Bali), and supreme leader of The Kingdom of Compound Interest.
Clearing a 1,400% investment return from January 2016 to December 2020 (increasing my investments more than 14-fold while beating The S&P 500 by more than 1,300%), I am a specialist in part-time focus investing.
Disturbed to learn I was an English Major training to become a verbal acrobat, my dad yanked me out of college and taught me investing in one week on a cruise ship. I went from knowing nothing about stock-picking to quadrupling my first investment—then rolling those proceeds into Google and Apple during the recession, then into Netflix as they transitioned into streaming (then into other winners that are sitting in your kitchen)—using simple principles I teach people in my Your First Stock® workshop.
After 18 years of investing as a hobby to fund the life I want to live, this continues to amaze me: investing is the most lucrative skillset on the planet but it’s taught well damn near nowhere.
So I’ve built Find Fat Fish to do for you what my dad did for me. (If, and only if, you’re ready.)
