# Investment business is a scam
## Don't trust financial advisers
Don't trust anyone selling financial products, even if they are endorsed by your employer and especially if:
- the fees are a recurring % of the portfolio ([Compound interests make you rich](smdc))
- they are offering gifts or holidays
- urgent one-time offers needing immediate decision
They are trying to exploit your emotions caused by the fact that [financial markets are random](fa2k).
## Avoid managed financial products
Avoid at all cost actively managed fund, because:
- the recurring fees will eat your interests
- they attract more taxes
Avoid QROPS (offshore pensions) for expats.
