Frequently asked questions

What language is the course in?

The course is recorded in Spanish. Every lesson has subtitles in English, Portuguese and Spanish, so you can follow it even if Spanish is not your first language.

Do I need any prior knowledge?

No. Module 1 starts with the psychology of money and each module builds on the one before. If you already have a base, the programme helps you put it in order and act on it.

How much does it cost, and how does the coupon work?

The course costs €25 as a one-off payment. The first 10 students get 50% off with the coupon PRIMEROS10: the discount button applies it automatically at checkout, or you can type it in yourself.

Where do I watch it?

On the Hotmart platform, from your computer, your phone or the Hotmart app. Access arrives by email as soon as payment is complete.

What if it is not for me?

Is it useful if I do not live in Spain?

Most of the course is universal: psychology, habits, compound interest, portfolios and investment philosophies. Module 6 applies Spanish tax rules and tools, and shows you which questions to ask in your own country.

Is this financial advice?

No. It is financial education: it teaches you to understand and decide for yourself. It does not recommend specific products or replace a regulated adviser.
