Let's imagine that you have half a million US-Dollar/Euro/GBP and want to feel financially safe and build a better future.
1. Real estate - It's probably one of the safest investment option out there. Inflation rises, rent and apartment prices rise too, if inflation turns into deflation, your rent/apartment price still remains the same. With half a million, you can buy two or more good apartments in eastern Europe and live on your rent income.
2. Cryptocurrencies are very volatile but rewarding. If you have a discipline and don't let your emotions take control over your decisions, then you can probably grow your capital by 200-500% a year. At least I think so, I think that's possible if one spends most of his time on exchanges and if necessary, spends some nights. So, crypto is very volatile and rewarding but another problem here is that you are dependent on exchanges, what will you do if they don't let you withdraw? Another problem is that you have to take care of your coins because once they are gone, they are gone forever.
3. Business - It's like an income generated by Proof Of Work algorithm. Depends on the business and the person, one can achieve a huge financial success and influence or a total failure. But a big and successful business can outperform real estate and crypto investments. To my mind, proof of work is the only thing that can deal with absolutely any kind of financial crisis and disasters.
Which one would you choose from these and why?
P.S. Spam will not be tolerated, that's why I open self-moderated thread. You post spammy, meaningless post and I'll immediately remove it! Don't ever try to do that here!
And can we not contrast these 3 interesting options, but instead use all three, as much as possible correctly ?
I'm talking about diversification. Why not diversify your funds and forces in 2-3 of the above mentioned points?
I am a supporter of the idea that one should not consider only one vector - profitable and stable. As practice has shown - everything in this world is very changeable. And when you have three potential channels of income generation - mutually competing (this is a good indicator), each having its own potential and risks available, why not choose diversification? Why choose only one option ?
My opinion - all of them are equally acceptable options, and it makes sense to use all three options if possible !
