From 4 followers to 1M+ across platforms—Compounding Quality began on a quiet Friday night in 2022. In this post, Pieter shares how luck, consistency, and authenticity built a leading investing newsletter, read by names like Bezos & Ackman.
A question , I see you use finchat, do you think is reliable? Because I happened to be looking up a company's numbers the other day, and when I compared them with other sites, I saw that there was a big difference, and ultimately, the data shown in Finchat
Congratulations, fascinating story. Passion, hard-work, and luck, a powerful combination. I’m very happy for you Pieter, and grateful for the work you do.
I initially found you on Twitter, loved the content and followed you here. Then I started my own substack. All of this hits home. You have to love it to do it. I'm retired now so this is my full time job. Keep up the great work! Like you said - even seasoned old folks like me read it!
Pieter, the journey and growth of Compounding Quality have been nothing short of spectacular. You mention that luck played a major role, but as the saying goes, “Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity,” and “Success is 1% luck and 99% hard work.” By that measure, you’ve earned every bit of the praise and respect coming your way — and then some. Dreaming big and following your passion is truly the way to live, and you're the living proof of that. I wish you continued success and even greater achievements ahead!

Lwas incorrect
Hi,
I use Finchat for quite a while and I'm very happy with it. Data are correct in 99% of the cases.
The difference in the data could also be explained by the fact that they calculate certain metrics differently. You can find a glossary here: https://finchat.io/blog/stock-investing-metrics-an-extensive-glossary/
Thanks a lot I’ll read it, good job by the way
thanks for this one, appreciated the review and reflections. keep it going and best of luck.
It's a true honor, Joel!

It's good to know more about your personal experience in becoming an investment influencer, Pieter.
You are truly an inspiration. Keep it up. And take some breaks; we need you to be relaxed and inspired 😅.
Hi Eric,
I'll keep that in mind and will work on that as well. To be continued!
