Anton Kreil’s Story
As mentioned above, Kreil started trading at a young age and he has been successful in a majority of his endeavors in the investing world. He has been able to grow his wealth as well as establish a name for himself, so much so that people are willing to pay him for his advice on investing.
Kreil didn’t always have it easy though. He was born into a rather poor family and was forced to live paycheck to paycheck much of his adolescent life. This is what initially drew him to investing to begin with. He wanted to be able to secure a financial future for himself. The young investor went on to study economics at the University of Manchester and sought out a career in finance.
Once he hit his mid-20s Kreil had been named Vice President of European Equities at JP Morgan. He also held positions at Lehman Brothers and Goldman Sachs and aimed to retire early (extremely early). Kreil left the investment banking industry at the young age of 28 (when most people are just getting started).
After traveling the world a bit Kreil decided to return to London where he began work on “Million Dollar Traders.” The short series aimed to educate people about the world of investment trading. as well as provide some entertainment value. Once he’d appeared on the show as a professional trader, a whole new line of business opened up for Kreil.
Now he was able to sell his advice, and that’s exactly what he did. But how did it all affect Anton Kreil’s net worth? Are people really buying into his expertise?
Anton Kreil’s Net Worth
He has said in multiple interviews that he has been determined to get out and stay out of financial trouble (and he seems to be doing a good job of that). Anton Kreil’s net worth is estimated to be $10 million, a relatively high net worth for someone who retired at 28.
Of course a bulk of his cash was made early on in his career though his high position with JP Morgan and positions with other world-recognized investment banks. However, since he’s been retired from investment banking, Kreil has found a number of other ways to generate cashflow.
Kreil has set up online training classes for beginning investors. Users can gain one-month access to the online courses for $1,499 or a full year of access for $2,999. He also offers free seminars in some of the larger cities around the world (New York, Toronto, London, Dubai, Singapore, Hong Kong).
There is no doubt that Kreil is making a killing with his online training courses and seminars around the world, whether his classes are worth it or not is an entirely different question. One thing is for sure though, Kreil and his wealth aren’t going anywhere any time soon. In fact, he has plans to be the first trader in space, so be on the lookout for news about Anton Kreil in the future!
