In what are you guys actually storing and investing your money? in FIAT? Crypto? Stocks?
And how much? im thinking about moving more money into stocks so...

In order to maximize my profits and at least mitigate the damage of losses, I have invested into three (3) categories namely:

1. Stocks;
2. Real Estate (i.e. condominiums and lands); and
3. Cryptocurrencies

The reason on why I invested into STOCKS is purely for long-term investment. Though the movement and price might be slow as compared to cryptocurrencies, I consider my stocks as my assets for the future. For real estate, a part of my monthly salary goes to the payment for the condominium that I bought. My goal is to at least have as many properties (also for long-term). Lastly, I consider my investments in cryptocurrencies (mainly bitcoin) as my bread-and-butter in terms of accumulating income for short-term.
I take advantage of its volatility and price fluctuations to my advantage in order to maximise profit in a short amount of time as compared to the other methods that I do.

Cryptocurrency is the best investment have I know. Stock and FIAT is good, but I just do crypto and stock for my future.
It is the best investment so far that I have now. I have some other investments in real life where it is managed by a bank but the return is very low and is like I'm earning an exact cent with its percentage.

Cryptocurrency is indeed a best alternative investment aside from stocks and investment thru banks. Banks gives you nothing because you money will become more weak overtime due to inflation. Yes, cryptocurrency are still not stable but in the long run it will improve and many people will enjoy this. I also play in stock market but I still choose this thing.

Highly debatable and it may be relative to each individuals' experience. As investing into cryptocurrency may yield you large amounts of profits in a short amount of time, the lack of collateral and security may be its trade-off. Bank deposits are covered by insurance (depends per bank on the maximum insured value) and stocks are regulated by the PSE.

If your economy is doing good in your country then stock or mutual fund would be a good investment but investing in this kind of investment vehicle is for long term since they are not that volatile so trading it when you are already trading crypto makes you feel that the movements are so slow. I have a business related to agriculture so if ever I have some crypto profit, I just put some to that business because I am just starting and I just want to expand it since the demand of it is high but the supply is limited so this is a good business opportunity.

As to how much I invested, it is only a little amount and I think it would be better not to reveal publicly how much because there are some things that are better left confidential for some reason. If you want to do business aside from crypto, you should just choose a business you are passionate about because it won't feel that stressful if you like what you are doing.

For now Im not thinking to invest some alternative like in stocks or real estate. I am more focus on investing in cryptocurrency as much as I wanted to try others investment it lack of my time. Every other kind of investment always has the risks it is depends on you on how you can manage your assets to grow your money.

Fiat is very stable compared to stock and crypto. It even has to be stable in order to have normal situation in country. In fiat I would choose GBP, not for profit, for hold.
In crypto analyze positive/negative side of coins. Personally I prefer ether, it's great with it's functions and for me it is most fine coin compared to others, so progress always happens and wins. Every coin that seems more progressive, can be considered as better investment choice for me.
It just depends on the users choice of what coins should they invest and hold because most of us just stick to what is convenient to us and make more of it. Anyway, you are right fiat is so stable that we can not make it as an investment in the long run but it has a lot of things you can do in your fiat because it is the most widely used in our modern world right now, and you just have to figure it out. While crypto is more sufficient for a long term or short term investment.

I believe in the future will give me more profitable for crypto and stock. Crypto is not stable yet, so it will increase fast from the others coins.
Stocks is proven by time when that company became progressive and it grew, its going to be payback now. And with crypto, if you investment for a year or two you know where we are going.

I'm contented with crypto investment and I'm not looking for others anymore.
Its good to have some other type of investment but as of now, crypto is more than enough for me.
But if there's a chance that I'm going to look for another investment, I'll give it a try with stocks since I know how to trade with alts.

The investment depends upon the users self interest. Here I never expect for an alternative investment. I go with cryptocurrency to be the primary investment even though there is nothing to be a sustained growth factor. Anything could happen anytime without any prior intimation.

I have a 401k and retirement plan at work so most of my investments are in a mixture of stocks and bonds in those portfolios. Out side of those investments, I spend a relatively small amount investing in cryptocurrencies. I would guess that it’s about 10% if you consider my 401k and retirement plan as part of that total investment. Basically I am only investing extra money in cryptocurrencies.

Crypto and stocks for me.

30% BTC, 70% PoS coins

Stocks split over a portfolio of 6 different options, middle to low risk.

So far, everything in the green zone  Grin

I still find the most conservative options for the best - real estates, in different regions of the world.
Call me old school, real estates are my first choice after crypto and sites.
Real estates all the way bro! But considering the level at which you may have to go with real estate and some laws, cryptocurrency has actually given me a huge one in the short while though, but that does not mean diversifying should never always be an option. I love diversifying a lot and that helps to spread risk and as long as you know how to play your card well, you can always use any market to your advantage.

Does searching for alternate investments really matter ? Everyone have their own preference of where they want to invest in. I am not really a fan of stocks anyway, so I would say both crypto and fiat. If you feel you want to move your money into stocks, that is your decision to make and you should do due diligence before going ahead. There is really no point expecting to make decision based on other people's opinion.

Can't disclose how much I have stored in stocks but in the mean time I'm 50% crypto, 25% stocks, 13% in real estate, and 12% in my local printing shop. The crypto part seem to be aggressive of an investment but apparently it's my most profitable asset up to date, with more than a thousand percent gain just in the last 2 years. This setup works well for me, and in the last 2 years, I've built a considerable sum to continue my schemes and expand my printing shop. Also, you can't just run into a certain investment without proper research; a strategy might work well for me but for you, it won't. Needless to say, no matter how much you put in your business or howw you divide your bankroll, it's still up to you on what kind of approach will you be doing to get those investments back.

For me personally, real estate is the most booming investment to get in here in our country. Several foreign developers have already established their places here to take advantage of cheap labor and cheap properties.

Diversifying your assets are the best one, and I have to agree that cryptocurrency are still the most profitable as of today but for me you must invest also in other things. Real estate I believe will be back on its track after the bubble burst, we can't say a best alternative investments but it can also be a profitable one. Now the decision will always be your, so make it wise for you not to regret later.

To be honest, I have stocks and real state as my other main investments beside crypto. I also have a offline business and I used my bitcoin earnings to channel funds to it. But I can't say how much I have investment in stocks because I don't think that anyone will tell how much stock certificate they are holding right now. I have stocks that I've been holding for more than 15 years and real state that I bought in 2010, 15 years to pay, and I have someone rented it and I just add a few hundred of a dollars to cover my mortgage. If you are thinking then go for it as long as you do you research and make the proper investment and money management. Goodluck.

I like your approach more than anything else I have been following
I was relying on crypto since now but your plan gave me a good idea to extend my earnings
thankyou!!

I think that stocks, bonds, insurance, and fiat savings are all based on collapsing banking based economies. I've got a diversity of investments including Bitcoin, but one of the more unusual ones is physical copper. I've been buying scrap copper whenever I can find it at less than 50% of the current market price. I think it has great potential for growth, and may even join the precious metal group for investment. Once it's value was greater than gold, but that is unlikely to happen again.

You have a good mix of investments and I think you understand the importance of not putting the many eggs in just one basket. The right way to build wealth is not relying on only one source as it can be risky or just a form of gambling. The more type of assets the better as it can be the right way to manage risks. Right now, I am thinking of developing my own farm which can be long-term and can the source of our food supplies as well as for making some money. And I hope to be using what I earned in cryptocurrency for the project.

It's a good idea that you are putting your money on stocks but it will be much better if you also invest in other investments like insurance or real state. That's the investment i ever wanted before and dramatically changes as years passed by especially that i know cryptocurrencies already.

Your income depends on your education. There are many ways to have an income. No one knows your powers. Now education is worth the money. You have to find an acceptable way of income for yourself. Many people think that bitcoins fall from the sky. But it is not. It takes a lot of work to be able to earn bitcoins.


Indeed a good one, the best investment is within yourself. Proper education is the key for a successful life, Invest on your knowledge because no matter how much money you have you still be loss if you know nothing. People focus much on money without this, and in the end they loss money its true, its happening right now don’t ever forget to invest on your knowledge.

Mostly that's the case. But even for those that aren't fortunate enough to get a complete education, it's still possible to be successful. You just have to know what your passion is and find ways to utilize whatever resources are available for you. Many successful businessmen didn't finish their formal education but became a lot more successful than those that did. That's because they know what they want and they believed in what they can achieve.
