“It’s a joy to attend this classroom and learn from you. I took one accounting class in college over 20 years ago and can only wish if you would have taught it. I am learning so much from not just the material but the way you share your investing thought process and nuggets of wisdom you provide.“
Rahul Sharma
If you want to accelerate your financial independence by mastering a steadfast investing framework that makes your money work for you, this is for you.
Here’s the deal:
There has never been a better time to be a retail investor, yet picking the right stocks seems to elude the grasp of many investors.
Now, I’m not sure what investing means to you.
For some, it’s the gateway to growing wealth. For others, it’s about achieving financial freedom to cherish more moments with loved ones. Or perhaps, it’s the key to unlocking a life of travel and pursuing passions without restraint.
Or perhaps… You are a giant nerd like me and want to be rewarded financially for learning.
But one thing’s certain:
To carve out your success in the stock market in 2025 and beyond, you can’t afford to play the same game as everyone else.
To explain how I can help, let me tell you what I learned going from navigating financial constraints with zero investing know-how 15 years ago to thriving as a full-time investor today.
Thomas is very passionate about investing, and it shows in Steady Compounding Investing Academy as he gives a comprehensive guide to being a successful stock investor. An investment in this course is one that I know will pay dividends for many many years.
I’ve spoken to almost a hundred investors, authors, and money experts on my podcast Talking Billions and met many more in my 20 years as an investment advisor to wealthy families and individuals — my conversation with Thomas stood out. He shared with me his personal journey of discovering investing and figuring out the money equation in life. I saw in him someone with an insatiable appetite for knowledge. Thomas has so much to share with the world, and his writing and teaching style resonated with me. I’m sure it will resonate with anyone curious to feel more comfortable and more proficient around money and investing.
Thomas is one of most detailed analyst that you can actually understand! In an information market with one end filled with fluff by interenet gurus and the other by institutional analyst that speak alien only they understand, Thomas sits amongst a unique slither of independent analyst that you will find valuable to you. I have interviewed dozens of people in the space, it is not always about the most refreshing and highly acclaimed personalities, sometimes all you need is someone that has depth, you can trust and understand. I endorse Thomas chua!
I don’t want to waste your time — the next 5 minutes are worth reading if:
🙁 You have no idea which company’s stock to invest in, at what price to buy it at, and whether those companies have the resilience and growth potential you seek.
🙁 Watching the news causes you to second-guess your investment decisions. You are stuck in an emotional whirlwind, swinging between euphoria at positive headlines and despair at negative ones, clouding your investment judgment.
🙁 You find yourself buying a company’s stock without fully understanding why you’ve chosen it. When its value dips by 30% or more, you panic and start questioning your decision.
🙁 Valuing a business seems like a complex puzzle, you aren’t sure if a stock is under or overvalued. When market crashes happen, fear gets the better of you and you sell off without knowing the true worth of your investment, often resulting in losses.
🙁 Your 9-to-5 job or other life commitments leave little time for thorough company analysis, yet you want to cultivate the skill and knowledge to know what information to focus on to make informed investment decisions.
🙁 You tried learning to invest by watching YouTube or reading up on a bunch of books, but you’re still unsure and lack a clear framework on how to analyze stocks.
If these challenges resonate, you’re not alone.
In my conversations with investors over the last few years, I’ve heard these concerns echoed time and again.
A large number of investors entered the stock market in 2020, venturing into speculative positions, and fled when the stock market plummeted in 2022, only for the stock market to rebound in 2023.
Those who sold in 2022, hoping to buy back at lower prices, bit the bullet twice as they missed the recovery.
You’re told to…
Buy when the market crashes, yet not catch the falling knife.
Invest in fast growing companies, yet not pay an ‘expensive’ price.
Invest in cheap companies, yet avoid those that are suffering a secular decline.
If the answer were this simple, you wouldn’t be reading this now.
Investing ISN’T getting harder, but it’s certainly getting noisier. In this era of information overload, which often comes with misleading advice, it can feel like an uphill battle.
The stock market is still one of the best opportunities to grow your wealth.
What you need is a framework to cut through all that noise.
There’s a pattern among investors thriving long term (not speculators, but people who invest like business owners):
They invest in stocks of wonderful businesses.
This, by the way, is very different from what most “investors” are doing. Owning a stock isn’t just about trading the flashing prices on your brokerage app.
"Charlie’s most important architectural feat was the design of today’s Berkshire. The blueprint he gave me was simple: Forget what you know about buying fair businesses at wonderful prices; instead, buy wonderful businesses at fair prices."
- Warren Buffett
If you have a portfolio of wonderful businesses, these stocks will take over the heavy lifting of growing your wealth for you.
Simple enough, right?
But you know as well as I do, it ain’t.
Most investors act when they shouldn’t.
And hesitate when action is needed.
Investors pile into stocks when valuations are high and everything seems rosy.
In times of panic and decline in the stock market, they sell.
Unfortunately, most investors do not know what to look out for when analyzing businesses.
They buy based on what their colleagues say, the next hot stock, or worse, take investing advice from the trendiest TikToker or YouTuber.
See…
I realized that most investors aren’t successful because they are investing on borrowed conviction.
In other words, they rely on someone else’s research or opinion rather than conducting their own analysis and forming their own opinions.
When the market goes down, their shaky foundation crumbles because they don’t know what they own and sell at a loss.
When you look at the top investors in the world, guess what they all swear by?
Only invest in what you understand.
Success leaves clues.
By understanding your investments, you will be able to weather market downturns and seize opportunities to buy when everyone else is losing their minds.
That’s when you set yourself up future returns, and watch your wealth compound.
Investing isn’t about chasing the latest fads or being glued to the news.
It’s about conducting your own thorough analysis, making decisions with calm confidence through all market conditions.
People trip up because they don’t have a robust framework for analyzing businesses, assessing their value, and navigating risks.
They fail to recognize that the essence of successful investing lies in identifying wonderful businesses and then, simply stepping aside to let them flourish.
Which is where I’d like to help.
I’ve known Thomas for a number of years. During our regular conversations, I’ve always been impressed by the depth of knowledge he has about companies and stock market investing. I’ve also seen Thomas’ work up-close as a subscriber, and he regularly produces quality research that spells out - clearly and simply - the important drivers for an investment opportunity. If I were starting out as an investor who’s eager to improve my abilities, an investment in Thomas’s course will be at the top of my list.
Thomas's insights and analysis are some of the best I have read. He provides clear, distinct views and thoughts to help you become a better investor. I have devoured Thomas's content for several years and he has helped me up my investment game several fold. Thomas has this unique ability to explain complicated finance terms in a way you can understand, but also apply to your investing immediately. This is a rare skill. Investing in his course will pay you dividends long after you finish the course, it will give you the foundation to be a better investor every day.
Thomas was one of the first investors I came across when I started. His big strength is his ability to break complex concepts down to their core and package them into easy-to-understand principles. Investing can be overwhelming, but Thomas’s talent for teaching, combined with his 15 years of experience, will help all young investors out there to overcome that feeling and begin a long (and steady) compounding journey!
As a teen, I juggled odd jobs to afford school, feeling burned out. The concept of escaping the “rat race” resonated with me.
Driven to find my financial freedom, I dove into research and discovered the magic of compounding – making money work for me.
This ignited a passion for investing that persisted through college and a public service job.
After 14 years, I was able to leave my job at the age of 31 to write about investing and manage my portfolio full time.
My dream was to let my money do the work for me so I could live on my terms.
But I had ZERO clue how to identify winning stocks.
…Until I came across Warren Buffett.
When it comes to investing, Buffett has two rules:
“The first rule of an investment is don’t lose money. And the second rule of an investment is don’t forget the first rule. And that’s all the rules there are.”
Building wealth isn’t about chasing the highest returns without consideration for risk. Rather, it’s about the consistent, steady compounding of returns.
Understanding this principle is key to building long term wealth. I invite you to watch a 30-second clip of my interview with Channel News Asia (CNA) on this topic:
If you are reading this, chances are you found my articles or interviews helpful ever since I started sharing my investing thoughts publicly in 2020.
I started putting out how I analyze stocks, value businesses and compound my portfolio. And my following began to grow.
I was featured on my favorite platforms.
And began connecting with investors from around the world.
It took me a long while to figure out investing… but it doesn’t have to be the case for you.
I combined my years of investing experience with more than 10,000 hours of research, learning about the best companies in the world, and I created The Steady Compounding Investing Framework.
Information is easy to find these days. But useful insight, layered with context and experience, is rare. That's what you get with the Steady Compounding service. Thomas's easy-to-understand explanations belie the amount of work he put in to keep it simple for anyone to gasp. Sometimes, he goes off the beaten path to find information that is novel yet relevant. His work comes across as genuine, much like having a coffee with a friend.
Thomas is a student of investing on a journey towards mastery. He has studied the greats, studied what works and what doesn’t, and distills those lessons down into valuable investing content. The combo of his deep study, practice, and passion makes for a great investing curriculum.
Thomas’s deep dives indicate the amount of hard work he has done each time to clearly and concisely put together the most relevant information. Often bringing together a unique and logical perspective that drives each investment thesis, making it genuine, straight to the point and easy to read. His genuine and simple writing is what I love most.
Steady Compounding Investing Academy is a self-paced video course with lifetime access (and updates) that aims to:

MASSIVE THANK YOU TO THOMAS! I love his course because there is no fluff, and he is excellent at explaining complicated concepts with simple terms. A 5-year old kid can understand too. My biggest AHA moment is actually the live Q&A call where I asked all my questions in one goal and get well-explained answers! Compared to other investor courses, Thomas is no doubt the best teacher I have ever learnt from because he really masters the investing skills and he is extremely resourceful and customer centric! Before you invest in the right stocks, invest in the right teacher first - and I mean Thomas Chua!!! This guy can easily 100X your ROI with this tiny course fee by teaching you how to make a right investing decision. You will live a good life in the long run by consistently learning from him, thanks Thomas once again 🙂
I am not a newbie to stock investing but I overpaid for many growth companies in 2020 and 2021. I didn't sell when I was sitting on huge paper profits . Initially I was skeptical of paying for this course. I thought worst case I will hear what I already know, best case I will learn something new. I am very happy I joined this course. I learnt a lot, to name a few that I truly valued, I loved learning how to value companies and not overpay with margin of safety. Enjoyed learning from real life investing examples from Thomas. He is a patient, knowledgeable and engaging teacher!
If investing is a game, this course serves as a tutorial that guides us through level by level. I love that the content is condensed and structured. It is meaningful especially for someone with minimal investment knowledge and who would like to take a hands-on approach (reading of reports, assessment, valuations and due diligence) towards investing. My proudest takeaway is to gain the confidence and skills to do my valuations and due diligence before I invest in a company.
Every moment was filled with so many insights and value! I honestly feel that I am very lucky to have found this course as one of my first few courses. This course is definitely hands down, a course that is selling under its intrinsic value. The instructors are really out there to make an impact and to teach one how to fish instead of giving them the fish. I honestly think that the amount of value that this course delivered is the only one out there in the industry/market.
The content was well structured and covers all the key things new investors need to learn (but don't have time to read 30 books and then try and remember what is important)! The biggest AHA moment was seeing how experienced growth investors analyse a company's performance over time to really begin to understand the business. I would highly recommend this investing course to people who want to compound their wealth over the long-term.
Prior to taking the course, I had attempted to self-learn about investing through the usual gamut of materials available (YT, articles, podcasts etc). I had only made intermittent progress, because the amount of info to filter was really overwhelming for a newbie. This is the first 'proper' investing course I've taken and I'm really glad! For newbie/beginner investors, I'd highly recommend attending the course. No BS, no fluff, solid focus on drilling fundamentals, and trainers are refreshingly grounded, and passionate about sharing their knowledge and experience.
Learned a lot about what matters and what to look in businesses and always keep in mind to view it from a business owner perspective. Though I need to run through the video recording few times to get it since I’m a beginner, the whole course is enjoyable and totally appreciate the tips of how to simplify the process of valuing company/stocks. Will totally recommend this to people who want to know the companies they invest in instead of just following the news.
You can tell they really went the extra miles to impart us what they know, not just for the sake of teaching. There were lots of AHA moment for me during the course, and you will definitely find yours if you join the course. One of the biggest AHA moment for me was finding out how easy it is to read the annual reports, cash flow, valuation etc. They really put it in the simplest way to explain it to us. I definitely recommend beginners like me to join this course, you won’t regret!
Thomas opened my eyes to the world of compounding since he started Steady Compounding, and I have been hooked ever since. His deep dives are thoughtful, insightful, and relevant while providing useful resources that can be used by anyone. Worth every dollar! I’m glad I found him — his work has enhanced my knowledge of the world around me.
I have been investing for over a year and have learned about the importance of determining the intrinsic value of a company. However, after consulting various sources on how to perform such valuations, I still find that I do not grasp the underlying principles (due to my lack of background in financial and accounting knowledge), until I came across the Steady Compounding Investing Academy. Thomas not only teaches the method, but he also explains the concepts behind valuation in a simple and clear manner. More importantly, he helps me filter out all the "noise" surrounding investing, studying companies, etc., allowing me to focus on the truly essential actions. What I particularly appreciate about his approach is that it is grounded in research, without resorting to sensational language promising quick wealth, big success, or guaranteed returns – a perspective that aligns more with my personality. I would recommend this course to anyone who views investment as a long and steady journey.
I have been following Thomas across all his social media accounts and find his content very easily understandable for beginners. Thomas is able to breakdown technicalities in analysing companies for the layman and this is beneficial for people who has time constraints. In this new course, the mental shift that I picked up was the difference in net income and free cash flow when thinking about valuation and also in analysing companies which have negative equity. If you are someone who is new to investment or would like to start learning in analysing companies, then Thomas would be the right mentor to go to as he is able to teach you in cutting out noises when investing and have conviction in your investing journey. Thank you Thomas!
Enrolling in the Steady Compounding investing course has been an enriching experience that has added significant depth to my investment knowledge. Despite having over a decade of experience in the market, I found immense value in the course's meticulous attention to detail and its ability to present complex concepts in a refreshingly understandable manner. While my years of investing have equipped me with a solid foundation, the Steady Compounding course offered invaluable insights and strategies that have enhanced my approach to the market. Its comprehensive curriculum covers a wide range of topics, from advanced investment techniques to nuanced market analysis, providing seasoned investors like myself with the tools to refine our strategies and adapt to evolving market conditions. I wholeheartedly endorse the Steady Compounding investing course to fellow investors who are looking to elevate their understanding and performance in the market. It's a testament to the fact that, no matter how experienced we are, there's always room for growth and improvement in the world of investing.
The course was very easy to understand for a beginner like me - They were able to explain concepts very well and relate to real-life examples. My biggest mental shift was how we should think like business owners when it comes to investing - only put our money in if we truly understand the business and have conviction in it, and not to be distracted by the stock market. Thomas have a very down-to-earth approaches to investing, and there are a lot of life lessons and wisdom in the course of their sharings as well. This is something lacking in a lot of other investing lessons I've come across. Anyone can teach concepts, but not everyone can teach the right mindsets. I would definitely recommend this course to other beginners. The wise mindsets and viewpoints that they share beyond the technical stuff should also be part of the foundation all investors should have.
I have been following Thomas' content across his social media platforms and I have subscribed to his research reports for more than a year. This Investing Academy is the latest service that he has offered. One thing that I can say with certainty is that Thomas' words and actions are consistent with his investment principles. He takes the emotions out of investing; he does not give FOMO advice. Compared to the abundance of content (or noises) out there by news outlets and investment "gurus", Thomas is in a league of his own. He is a breath of fresh air that is much needed in this industry. The Investing Academy is suitable for you if you want to manage your personal investment for the long term. You will be able to view the recordings at your own pace (with opportunities for Q&As) and you must be willing to put in the hours to learn. It is not suitable for you if you just want to earn quick bucks or gather stock tips. If you are serious in learning, the course is well worth the money.
I love the well-thought sequence and content (in different sessions) taught during this entire masterclass which was packed with many real life examples and experiences by both of you which helps us learn so much more. The biggest learning I gain from this course is what to look out for and what to ignore in 10-K,10-Q, Earnings Press Release, and Investor Presentation. This helps in shortening the time required to research a company. They teach without holding back, giving every information and knowledge which they know to us. This is definitely worth commending as some other investing courses usually aim to get participants to sign up for more courses instead of value-adding. Highly recommended course to other beginners as the learning curve is acceptable and sufficient time is provided for participants to learn the knowledge at a steady pace!
Even with my accounting background, I struggled to intuitively understand the business models out there even though the courses highlighted strategies. I found Thomas's course to be more fitting for my level and because of it, I was now able to better apply what I learnt from other courses into my investment approach. I can say it is more suitable for beginners to intermediate investors. Thomas's insights on why these investing metrics are important and how they apply beyond investing have helped me to understand businesses more intuitively when I don't have access to my materials. I now can more easily identify business models and understand how to stress test them better, which is better than some of the over-optimism I see in other courses. If you are new to equity/stock investing and you want to learn more, Thomas's course eases you in nicely so that you can start reading 10-Ks and get the useful information.
Thomas shared many useful tips to analyze financial reports and the qualitative side of the business, as well as tools so that investors like us can do their own quantitative analysis of the business as well. To me, Thomas way of teaching the concept of DCF has got to be the best that I have heard so far. He managed to break it down and make it really easy to understand the whole concept.They are also very willing to share and the process and framework taught in class were used in their own investing practice as well. I will definitely recommend this class for someone who is just starting up on the investing journey. Oh one more thing, you guys are a great follow on Twitter as well!
What I really liked about the course was we were taught how to extract the key metrics and input them into a proprietary template done by the trainers. With this template all the quantitative info needed could be analysed with just a quick glance which was so amazingly concise! They were able to clear up a lot of my questions which I were not able to find answers to clearly online. I have been searching quite awhile for such a course and am really glad I signed up for it. My only regret is I did not come across it earlier. But hey! Better late than never! .
I really enjoyed all the real life examples that were shared during this bootcamp which allowed me to understand the concepts better. Most importantly, I am also thankful for how the bootcamp was very practical instead of theory based. It has given me a practical process on how I can start investing as a beginner. Biggest AHA moment is when I realised that reading annual reports is not an alien language, but it can actually be done in a simple and systematic way for retail investors like me. I love how Thomas is able to present complex financials in such a smooth and straightforward manner.
I have been following Thomas for over 2 years now. I started with his newsletter where I learn more about investing. His regularly share books , blog and podcast that can benefit me to become a better investor. This are all very valuable resources that ordinary investor may not have come across. I like his investment philosophy and the way he articulates the complicated world of Investing. When he started to teach his 1st investment class in 2022, I immediately sign up. I knew he can deliver on what I want to learn. I know he is the guy that I can trust. I have signed up another of his investment class recently. The contents are great and enough to keep me thinking deeply into my own investing journey. I believe as a investor himself, he knows the pain points of being an investor. That's why his courses are a must for all serious investors.
Peter Lynch once said that "If you can’t explain to an 11-year-old in two minutes why you own a stock, then you shouldn’t own it.” The most important thing I learnt from Thomas was to understand what I was buying into when investing in a particular stock then to be able to explain in layman terms before any logical analysis can be done. I especially appreciate the effort he makes into reading and studying hedge fund letters, books and other works of great investors on what they have done and internalizing them into the curriculum of this course, making the content so much relevant to the current stock market context. He also goes the extra mile to answer my questions as detailed as possible which is a far cry from the attention I get from trainers of other investment course providers. I highly recommend this course to any beginners interested in investment but concerned about course material being too technical.
This course trains your inner self to focus only on the things that matter the most, which is fundamental for any investor. My biggest AHA moment was when I learnt how simple it was to value a growth company and when to buy/sell. It's usually simple, but not easy - but these guys make it both simple and easy by breaking down complex investing concepts and business models.
As an aspiring investor, I wanted to learn more about the fundamentals from someone beyond YouTube videos and finance articles. Thomas's approach towards investing makes me understand what true investing entails. I would recommend the course to any investor looking to get into the market and grow their portfolios sustainably.
Thomas course is very comprehensive and it offers a lot more insights into how to analyse companies at a much deeper level. It gives me more confidence in selecting the right businesses to grow my portfolio! 😀 Thank you Thomas!
Being a novice in the investment market, the research Thomas has put together made a lot of sense in a field full of questions for me. His work really helps you see through all the social media noise and the confusing news, putting you in the position to make an objective decision. Even more than his work, I appreciate his philosophy, focused on long term consistent growth.
I've had the privilege of benefiting from Thomas's expertise in financial analysis, and I can't recommend him highly enough. He consistently provides timely updates on the financial market, sharing insightful perspectives that keep me informed and ahead of trends. What sets him apart is his ability to break down complex business financial data and strategies into simple, actionable insights, while also offering valuable lessons drawn from the experiences of seasoned investors. His emphasis on value and compound investing for long-term success is both inspiring and practical. If you're looking for a trusted expert who combines deep knowledge with clear communication, Steady Compounding is the one to go for.
SCIA offers exceptional value. I like the format of the course and Thomas's ability to communicate the information in a manner that is interesting and easy to understand. I recommend it to the people in my network and anyone that expresses an interest in investing because it's concise and provides a great framework that's easy to follow. I constantly find myself referring back to it often.
Very much appreciate the way you think about and evaluate investments. My biggest appreciation is your lack of hubris and recognition of confirmation bias. I (prior Air Force) liken this to taking pride in performing a go around rather then feeling the need to land out of every approach. It can be frustrating to spend weeks digging into a company only to discover a red flag late or decide it’s just too hard and set it aside. Choosing to perceive that time as value added learning something new rather than wasted is a rare gift.
The valuation live session was extremely helpful for me, being guided step by step over Zoom on how to rationally compare what the company says they are doing versus what they have done so far sounds like common sense, but it didn't occur to me to think that way until you talked it through with us. Your encouragement during the entire session really helps students like myself feel less intimidated with this topic. Thank you for conducting these sessions. Can't help but reach out, and give back with my thoughts especially after having benefited from that session.
I signed up for Steady Compounding because I wanted to learn about investing from someone who has the experience, wisdom and skin in the game. Thomas had all that and more! I enjoy Thomas's clear, engaging and educational research reports and updates. His in-depth analysis of companies paired with his storytelling abilities makes reading about investing fun while educational. I highly recommend Steady Compounding to anyone who wants to compound not only their investment portfolio but also all aspects of life. Thank you, Thomas!
I thought I should pass on my thanks for conducting the course. I am on the East Coast of US so timing didn't work out to attend live sessions. I tried but in the end decided to focus on the session recordings. I am a session behind but have been meaning to convey to you that it's a joy to attend this classroom and learn from you. I took one accounting class in college over 20 years ago and can only wish if you guys would have taught it 🙂 I am learning so much from not just the material but the way you share your thought process and nuggets of wisdom you provide.
This is the 4th Investing course I’ve joined so far and I’m SO glad I decided to join despite this being marketed as “for Beginners”. This course (to me) is more of a “Investing Essentialism”, helping me remove a whole LOAD of stuff (& confusion) and only FOCUS on the Essentials! With this Essence and Clarity, it’s so actionable. Each day after the course, I wanted to “ride the wave” and continue applying what I’ve learned. Definitely very suitable for beginners and for anyone who need Investment Clarity regardless no. of years of investing experience.
The lessons in this course are the distillation of more than a decade of in-depth learning, practical execution, and meticulous refinement.
This is for you if you finally want to do investing right.
When I started out 15 years ago, I wanted to take investing courses to speed up my learning, but many courses came with a price tag of over $5,000.
And to take a class at Columbia Business School (where Warren Buffett learned investing) would cost tens of thousands of dollars.
The courses were out of my reach back then, even though I knew they’d help me leapfrog my investing journey.
I want to make sound investing education accessible to as many people as possible after this experience.
I’m confident Steady Compounding Investing Academy will empower you with the knowledge to make informed investment decisions..
So I’m offering it at a steal — but on one condition.
There’re many fluffs in my space. Your word helps me prove I’m not one of them. When your results roll in, it would be great if you tell some friends that this course is the real deal.
Sounds fair?
If so, you can get instant access to everything we’ve discussed, plus seven valuable bonuses, for just $1,200 $1,020 USD by enrolling before Tuesday, January 14th, at Midnight Pacific Time.
That includes all future updates (investing evolves and I’ll make sure you evolve with it).
Because unlike a lot of courses, this isn’t a buy-it-once and goodbye thing.
I’m always looking for better ways to help you. And I don’t keep what I find secret.

As a zero-finance background person, investing had been a pain point to me because I didn’t understand the market, and I had no idea where to begin learning. Thomas’s blog “Steady Compounding” inspired me to understand what really lies under every stock — a company. His course taught me how to read earnings report in a quick and simple way while digging out the intrinsic value of a company. What blew my mind was Thomas’s valuation methods. It helps me to sit tight through thick and thin in the market. Few months after I attended his course, I participated an investing competition and even won a prize!
I can honestly say that it was one of the best investments I have made. The course is a comprehensive guide to investing that takes you from beginner level to someone that can make their own investment decisions comfortably, covering everything from basic investment principles to more advanced strategies. I have studied investing for four years now and I am well past the beginner phase. However, I must admit they shared insights and tips that I had never heard before, which have already helped me make better investment decisions. I feel more confident and knowledgeable than ever before, and I owe it to Thomas. The knowledge I gained from this course will undoubtedly benefit me for many years to come. As Warren Buffet once said, "The more you learn, the more you earn." Thanks to Thomas, I am now equipped with the knowledge and skills to make smarter investment decisions and increase my wealth.
I’ve recently attended the course and I finally see the light in terms of using accounting concepts in determining which equity to select and buy. The course is conducted the course in a very clear and concise manner allowing laymen like me to understand and apply it in real life. Their interactive way of engaging the audience also made learning effective and fast. They’ve truly put a lot of thought in designing and executing the course. For you guys out there who want to invest effectively and efficiently, pls sign up for this course. You won’t regret it.
I loved the practical approach you guys implemented. First, you get basic knowledge of a topic, and then you do the practical exercises to understand the concepts. It helped me to understand the concept really well. How to do a valuation of any company was very insightful. I am confident in doing a fundamental analysis of any company using the excellent template provided by you guys. It gives you a lot of insights about the company and you can see the patterns in the numbers.
In the past few years, I investing just mainly based on the PE and PBV ratio, little bit guessing and a big question mark about value investing. The session that I enjoyed the most is the sharing of the REAL LIFE examples and use cases either for both good and bad company. These are very helpful especially for newbie like me. This course is absolutely RECOMENDED for those who would like to learn about value investing and both of them are really a great investor and mental model.
Am glad I decided to go ahead with this course despite my busy schedule. It not only teaches good fundamental principles of investing, there are concrete, simple, and step-by-step examples to back up the principles. Definitely learn a lot from the insightful thought processes on investing. These videos have high rewatch value. Pretty sure we will need to refer to them when we start our own investing journey.
You’re still here, which tells me three things.
First, you care about your financial success. You wouldn’t spend this long reading otherwise. Second, you’re intrigued by what I’m saying. You want to master investing for some, or all, of the reasons I’ve suggested.
But you’re also skeptical—which I understand.
I won’t say much else. If it’s not the right time, no problem.
But if you’re not sure, let me say this.
You have nothing to lose.
Investing is an amazing skill.
Aside from growing your wealth, it empowers you to make your own financial decisions and see investment opportunities with a discerning eye.
And I’ll be honest.
You can learn to invest without Steady Compounding Investing Academy—I did.
But I also had to wade through so much conflicting advice about how to invest that I wasted tons of energy on unimportant stuff.
I wish I had a clear blueprint to follow when I started—something that told me what to do and what not to do.
That’s why I built this course.
It’s a step-by-step guide I wish I had when he was trying to figure out investing.
If you care about growing your wealth and becoming financially independent through investing in the stock market, I guarantee you won’t find better material.
And like I said, if for any unlikely reason you find otherwise, I’ll return your investment.
I appreciate your attention,
Thomas
I like an inquisitive investor! I’ve compiled a list of questions I’ve been asked most. If these don’t cover your questions, drop me an email at thomas@steadycompounding.com instead
How much will this cost?
Are there any hidden charges?
The course is available for a fair investment of $1,200 $1,020. Given the in-depth knowledge you’re about to access, this is a solid deal, especially when compared to other pricier courses that deliver less value.
Math isn’t my strong suit. Can I still benefit from this course?
Absolutely! As Warren Buffett said, “If calculus were required, I’d have to go back to delivering papers. I’ve never seen any need for algebra.” The only math you’ll need for this course is basic arithmetic.
I’m already juggling a lot.
How much time do I need to become an investor?
I feel that. It took me years of studying investing materials and learning from seasoned investors before I became proficient with investing. In this course, I will teach you everything you need to know and what to focus on, to make sure you become a proficient investor in the shortest amount of time.
Does this course cover forex trading and technical analysis?
No, this course doesn’t cover those. I’m an investor, not a trader or speculator. My teaching centers around what I confidently know and do well, steering clear of speculation.
Is there a time limit to access the course material?
Not at all. In fact, I plan to continuously update the course with more investing content and fresh case studies. If you invest now, you’ll get those future additions for free, even when the course price increases.
Do you have plans to teach live courses again?
The beauty of recorded courses is that they offer constant flexibility. Not only can I continue to update and add new modules to keep the content fresh, but it also allows learners globally to engage with the material at their own rhythm. Plus, I must admit, I don’t like repeating myself every time I run a new course cohort.
However, to mark this special launch, I’ll host a exclusive two-days LIVE bootcamp on “How to Analyze Financial Statements & Value Businesses Like a Pro” to help you get started and to answer any questions you may have about the course.
Just make sure to sign up before the deadline to gain access!
Does this course come with a community?
There’s no community with the course because I want to give you lifetime access to the material without charging you a monthly subscription. We do have Q&A calls frequently where you can meet with other investors.
Will you issue a certificate of completion?
Of course! Upon enrollment, you’ll receive an invoice. If you need a certificate of completion, write in to me and I will send it over.
