How would you double $100,000 safely?

[thejaytiesto]

It's hard to say, but if you want to gamble, the us election betting are pretty safe, the possibility of the election being rigged is big, according to Wikileaks Trump cannot win, it's impossible, therefore, just put $100,000 in a Hillary win bet, odds are @ 1.25, that means you get $25,000. Not doubled.. but relative easy amount of money.

Doubling of the quoted amount is possible, but the risk gets increases upon the time fixed for reaching the targeted amount. Secondly if it has to be reached in a short time then gambling is the only hope else try with other forms of trading and making use of fiat and bitcoin into different business. Second form of earning needs lot time to get the amount doubled.

Risk really increases with the time frame, less time higer risk, more time lower risk. And that is conclusion of this questiom how to double amount OP mentioned. Choosing faster ways like gambling, daily trading, stocks is very risky, real estates, some sorts of saving and investing in bitcoin are long term, and with smaller risk amount can be doubled.
From all this gambling would be my choice, but not with all money, part of it, but with rest I would buy bitcoins and just wait.

Taking other risks is probably better than taking the risk of gambling as in gambling someone can lose everything with a blink of an eye and if someone loses an amount like the one mentioned in OP then he would most probably become a mental patient i guess.

It would be nice if there was a safe way to double that amount of money, but I think it would not be possible without a certain degree of risk. Even Bitcoin, which has well-established fundamentals, it is a risky investment, but I consider a better market relative to other markets, like the stock market.

I do not think that it is risky to double that amount if someone has some skills and are expert in business and have some patient and do not trust on shortcuts I have saw a number of people who have started their businesses with a minute investment and with time they have increased that investment much higher and have doubled that amount.

Safe way to double $100,000: buy treasury bonds and wait 30 years. Doing anything else takes risk. In almost every case, the potential return is tied directly to the risk involved. The safest investment always yields the lowest return. There is currently nothing safer than owning treasury securities. It will also return the lowest amount of money on the investment, but at a 3% yield under the long term bonds, you can double your money in approximately 30 years.

Well if there was a method to double safely, people probably made millions out of it already. I would suggest investing in Bitcoin or maybe just learn how to trade and make profit that way.

Going to trade for a hundred thousand bucks... That's VERY risky, bro. It takes only one bad event to take place and just a few bucks for the respective investment to fall and you're down. Creating an innovative business should be way better.

A very large sum of money to invest. No matter what type of investment you choose there are no guarantee at all that you will earn something and to double it I think that you need a lot of luck. But since you are ready to invest such a lot of money I suppose that you are also ready to lose it.

That's the logic there, when you are willing to risk any amount in investment you much be ready of the possible negative outcome as well. Not every investment you are going to succeed but you can be successful if you work your way very hard to get your goal.

There's no specific investment to tell since I am not in the place of OP, but one thing I am sure to have a successful venture is investment where you have all the knowledge and you can use your skills.

That is crazy if you are going to invest thousand bucks with a single trading career. It is better if you are going to have a lot of investments like forex trading and stock market trading. Because if you are just going to depend on a single source of income with that amount of investment, you are going to have hard time in doubling it.

For me, I will trade my bitcoin that Ill buy cheap coins and for sure
after how many months the coin price will double or triple the
amount that you bought. Patience also if you want to earn huge
profit. In gambling you might get lose in playing, i suggest not to
play with it.

I think this is the safest answer here Treasury Bonds but the catch is the time factor 30 years? maybe depends on how much interest. There is a formula they used before in order to double your money, it is called the Rule of 72.

To know when to double your money, divide 72 by the interest rate. For example when will your money doubles when your interest rate is 6% per year?

72/6=12. Meaning it will take 12 years (72 divided by 6) for your money to double.

That's too long to wait, maybe we have to consider putting our money in bitcoin that putting in bonds. That is a big amount of money to risk and I believe with the way bitcoin move in the market, you can double that amount in due time, at least not 30 years or more.

As they said patience is virtue so I believe it's good to wait as long as you have the assurance that you will be able to make good money in the right time. That's why most people who are in investment did not succeed because they are to greedy for the money and they want instant income.

Easy. Business. Doesn't have to be a website or a service, it can be anything. Re-selling, dropshipping, etc.

Drop a PM if ya want some ideas or help.

This is far the best answer in my opinion.  Anything that can give you profit!  Business is one of it and if you do reselling, you can easily see the profit from it.  Just make sure your chosen goods are in-demand and avoid wasting too much cash on useless thing.

Well the reality is that there is no safe way at all for doubling that amount of $100,000. All ways of investing has the risk.
And you need to take the risk in able to grow your money. If somebody offers you to grow your money safely.
Better to stay away from them as you know now that there is no safe way at all.

You can always make a safe method, put your money in the bank for a time deposit and surely it would earn interest, in 20 years you can already double that amount.

Double it in 20 years? Lol, very long time to wait for. I agree, there is no save and smooth way to double $100K in just one year, the best option to invest in bitcoin first and wait several months when there is a good increase and sell the coins. Start your own business is another way to makes income, but still there is no guarantee to double it in one year.

Long years indeed, and you can find it another instruments maybe as you suggested. For me its better o put it in mutual funds as it has minimal risks as it is run by professional. Since he is looking for a safe way, i think it is ok for him to wait. There are always risk in investment and the courage to take the risk is a good character for me to emulate.

The best way that comes into my mind is to look for an area with yet cheap real estates. Try to buy properties which are still undervalued or which could get a significant price rise in the future.

amount that you bought.

It's pointless to assume that the price will at least double in value after a certain amount of months. Not sure if you know it already, but there are no guarantees when it comes to Bitcoin. If that was the case, then you would have seen so many people swimming in their profits. This profit has to come from somewhere. Where 1 person is making profit, there are plenty of people losing money. And that's how you're profits are being funded. Don't forget that we are not sitting at $200-$400 levels anymore. It's $700 that we are talking about right now. That's why your look on the market is very worrying....

Real estate can be a decent investment, but it requires you to have years of patience, go through a lot hassle, you're subject to different tax policies, you have to find a buyer in the time that the economy isn't that great, etc. Plenty of reasons to avoid dumping your money into real estate. Especially for the average person.
