The truth about investment

[Odusko]

Investment success have alot to do with your level of capital and cash flows that provides you the incentive to keep supporting your investment, what I mean is that some investors become very successful because they allow themselves a break before touching their investment since they have extra sources if cash flow, and they even go ahead to provide support for their investment during market uncertainty, such investors will easily become successful than he can fail.

Firstly I would like to walk you guys through what I call the 2 types of investment i have in mind
1. Secure investment( these are low risk investment usually a long term investment like bitcoin, huge stocks, real estate)
2. Risky investment (these type of investment are considered risky and it's duration might be long term or short term eg altcoins, new stocks...)
Now the question is why did i bring this up?
Occasionally we've been seeing a lot of person talking about avoiding risky investment just because they want to play safe, we hear things like "do not diversify focus all your energy on bitcoin" this advice might sound logically good but it's  not a good financial advice to play it safe when you have a goal of becoming wealthy. Such advice is only good when you have already accepted the limit to how far you want to go financially.

It's true that people always advise newbies to avoid investing in high risk assets like Altcoins and newly launched stocks that have got no reputations, due to how highly volatiles these assets could be to immediately either fall or rise in it's price value. And secondly, been wealthy doesn't revolves around taking unnecessary and uncalculated risk in investing in altcoins you have little or know knowledge. Despite the fact that we still have some altcoins that are worth investing like Solana, and BNB, and likewise some people making huge profits by investing in altcoins. But one thing we need to know that such luck is regular in altcoin investment, as in other to be lucky, you need to have knowledge of projects that are likely to be launched and invest in their coin early, in other to be able to make massive profits. And that's why as a newbie, it's good to invest in low risk investment.

Your conclusion is very valid and to me as a Nigerian, I know say we sabi play safe which makes us last longer in every game but in the game of wealth yes it’s good to take risk and that risk should depend on the size of your pocket and how much risk tolerance you have. If you have your good portion of money in a very valid investment and then you have some garbage left you can play games with it by putting it where it may not return but if it returns then it returns big which is how successful people play but I prefer to have a guide, like someone who has done it before so it comes smoothly.

You're on point, in as much as folks shouldn't play it safe if they want to become wealthy yet their risk tolerance shouldn't be exceeded because that would only create more problems for them and instead of pursuing their financial goal they begin to solve financial problems that would take a while before a solution is provided and that downtime might have caused them to start being afraid to fail again but the logic is to fail wisely and not exposing yourself full-time to risk where as you should be working with risk tolerance.

On a personal note, I prefer failing into something which is one reason people created a failing plan called reserve funds for financial experts but however I choose to always have the bigger goal or investment to be the failing plan, when I fail the bigger investment should be able to handle whatever comes out of it. A back up plan should be set and infact for me I will just take all risk with the little percentage that I can handle, which is equally risk tolerance.

It is even riskier not to take risks.  Most of the richest people in the world decided to venture into sectors others avoided because of the fear of losing money. Taking risks is good but it should be a calculated one. No matter how attractive a project might look, I  might not invest in a pump and dump or Ponzi scheme. Some people might have been lucky to make money through this avenue but it will never be an option for me.

I will rather invest in a risky business, such as bitcoin, government bonds, or company shares than risk an unverified setup.

Having good knowledge or idea concerning the investment on is about to venture in matters a lot. As it includes knowing the positive and negative sides of the business, then one will be able to strategies on how to better do the business to get the best our of it, which gives different results at the end of the day. Making inquiries helps to save one from pit fall that might be in the business unknown which others have become victims to.verified investment are ok and secure to handle. Like you mentioned share, Bitcoin and a lot more.

Those who manage their finances and invest small amounts over a long period from a regular source of income do not have to be stressed by short-term fluctuations. And market fluctuations do not affect them much, due to which they are not forced to sell investments. Small investments help to follow a long-term plan. However, if the financial management is not right and there is a shortage of money for basic or urgent needs, then the investment may have to be broken if necessary. Many people face losses due to poor risk management despite having a lot of money, while many can achieve regular savings and discipline with limited capital. Cash flow is a powerful advantage that makes it easy to have time and patience, but success depends not only on cash flow but also on risk management and discipline.

Around 2021, I've been a lover of altcoins, investing heavily into them, until I discovered I've jumped into a trap that looks good on the outside and shitty when tried, it's better to invest what you could afford into alt but the mistake of thinking to confidently successful is very slim.

First thing first,I would encourage every investor to invest an amount they can afford to lose,I think that’s the basic principle of investing.It is usually said in pidgin “no go do pass yourself” the money you’ve set aside for investment,hope it’s an amount that you can afford to lose even when the investment doesn’t go as planned?Shitcoins are profitable in a short period of time most newer investors lack this knowledge,those shitcoins in the market are mostly referred to as pump and dump scheme that’s why it’s important to sell those shitcoins when they are in their bullish season otherwise you might loss because they may never pump again.Bitcoin still remain a long term investment that yields a good return and it’s a good investment choice to choose bitcoin as an investment option.

Investment must be where you created to be saving your money against future profit. These days Many investors that is making it from investment are those who are into BTC investment, because they are ready to hodl BTC for long years before they can sell to achieve what they want from the BTC investment.

There are some people who don't want to hear this truth, invest what you can afford to lose in decentralized investment, because the price is not control by the government or a particular organization, and you have to invest wisely so that you will not quit BTC investment. There is a risk in BTC investment which you need to know before investing, because your keys is your BTC and the moment scammers begin to gain access to your wallet your BTC is at risk.

Investment is investment provided as they keep to the rule of the particular strategy. For me strategy and commitment is the main reason why people get to be successful in the long run. Intense capital is also very supportive. I don't care about the other terminologies we create in other to make investment complicated. This terms and other rules are for big institutions that has many department.

In any investment if you ain't commited you can't be consistent, and to be committed comes with confidence from your knowledge of the asset you've invested in. Most times it's due to lack of proper knowledge that knocks people off from staying committed to the project, in that position, market FUD can easily unsettle you. But something else to consider is backup funds, it should be a part of every strategy and investor may want to utilize because sometimes investment are short lived because the investor has plans B to fall back to when uncertainty and emergency strucks.

You can invest your money anywhere you want. But my advice would be to invest in Bitcoin, because Bitcoin never guarantees profit in the short term or medium term, but if you invest in Bitcoin and you can protect your wallet, then there may come a time when you can profit from the investment. To establish a proper investment medium, you must be serious about investing.

It is true that long-term investment gives good returns, but investment has to be continuous, continuous investment is the only possibility of profit.

Backup funds is always important mostly when majority of your investments is tied up in fiat based investment.
The thing of note is to learn to diversify your investment portfolio to include assets that produce both short term and long term profits.

If an investor truly learns the discipline and risk management to maintain an investment portfolio, there's basically no investment that they can't learn, invest in and manage till the returns on investment comes assuredly.

What the OP is saying is a fact and it's better you learn if you don't fully understand than argue, investment differs and the OP just gave an explanation which I'll make clear to you, investing in Altcoin is different from Bitcoin investment infact it's more riskier that's why the OP termed Bitcoin secure while the other risky.
 The term and rules are for everyone not only institutions cause both individuals and institutions can either choose to go for secure or risky investments, infact institutions are mostly after the secure investments than risky ones it's individuals like you and I that mostly decide to risk on the other which is why people need to know the difference and which to channel more of their capital (discretionary funds) into.
