  "account": "A German author recounts their journey of managing their finances, specifically their private retirement provisions. They initially had a retirement insurance policy based on equity funds, which they purchased in 2008, but after 15 years and over 20,000 euros in contributions, they had only made a 1,000 euro profit. The author then switched to an ETF savings plan in August 2025, seeking a more secure and higher-yielding investment. They researched and selected a combination of green and conventional ETFs, balancing their desire for sustainability with financial security. The author reflects on their experiences, including the complexity of ETF investing and the abundance of financial influencers on social media.",
  "summary": "From the Handelsblatt archive: Our author deals with ETFs for the first time in his life - and finds that retirement planning is simpler in theory than in practice.",
