Do you believe that investment is for lazy people?

[bhadz]

‎So I ask,
‎Do you believe that investment is for lazy people?
‎

Not to be specific but it's for everyone who wants to get a better living. We all want out of poverty and want to chill in life and enjoy it to the fullest. That's why if we're in the moment of being lazy that's because we're all tired of working 9 to 5 and we are thinking how to get out of the rat race and that's what we're trying to do. If we're going to eliminate all of the problems we have mainly with the finances, we'd definitely be lazy people and just want to eat and do the things that we like to do or the passion that we want in life. But building investment isn't for lazy people and as well as the impatient ones.

Investment is not laziness or for lazy people, infact investment is a sign of seriousness and bravery. I don't care to know more about the reason why a person will see investment as laziness, no matter the facts and theory used to explain this, I don't Care to read because it's a big fat lie, Investment is the key to achieving Greater hight in the nearest future. People who succeeded and became famous today where once an investor in one way or the other. They put much effort on a project and it later gave them a profitable output. So investment is not laziness.

[Woodie]

Lol how can someone with a foresight of growing their money be called Lazy ??

You know what, this is one of the reasons the 1% is a small group because they aren't afraid to think outside the box and making money is not for everyone that thinks in these lines..

But on second thought,  is this the work smarter not harder theory..perhaps they are lazy after all

[Shinpako09]

First thing first, if you have the ability to invest, it means you are not lazy. Before you invest, you need to do research, including risk management and everything else you need to know before putting your money into something. That alone is not a sign of laziness.

Also, if you invest in something like BTC, even if your plan is to sell during the bull run, you will still check the price from time to time and keep yourself updated on what is happening in the market, including looking out for important news.

The same applies to other industries. Investing is not for lazy people but for those who are willing to work hard and learn. Most of them are people who want to escape poverty, avoid going back to it, or simply improve their lives.

‎So I ask,
‎Do you believe that investment is for lazy people?

Why? Is it because you don't facilitate on it with the usual efforts required like it's on the day-to-day trading or technologies?
Anyone that think such must be so adamant to understand the essence of investment is to stack or saves your values for a long term goal with the potential to hedge it against inflation in other hands, the profits gives it value over the long term.
Moreover, it's unarguable that working smart is more profitable than working hard and if getting wealthy was about hard work, those in the field like the laborers and the manpowers such as the employees should be richer than their bosses.
It's also far aware to anyone having that awkward mindset that investment is for lazy people to also know that investment should be an alternative source of income and not a day-to-day reliable source of income but of long term goals.

[SUPERSAIAN]

Investing is definitely a matter of planning and willpower. It requires consistent investing and monitoring your investments. This isn't for lazy people it demands dedication and many other things. Lazy people only consume they have consumption habits, and saving and investing are unnecessary for them because they deceive their minds in this way. They have many excuses for not investing.

[Vaculin]

Lazy people cannot wait for future delayed outcomes, so I don't agree that they can be good investors. Instead, I would prefer those who are hardworking and diligent people, patient, well-disciplined and knows how to value strict risk management. These are the qualities of the people who are fit into making investments.

But you know what? Lazy people do not remain lazy forever. They can make changes and make it work, especially if they start seeing potential life-changing investments that require long-term preparation and thorough research.

‎To me, this is more of a call to attention and a challenge to those who doubt their abilities and capabilities, to start their own businesses with the experience and ideas you have, because even though investment in any kind of asset including Bitcoin is a smart move to build long term wealth, building a business could amplify your wealth and change society in more economic and job opportunitistic ways than mere investment ever could.

It's sad that when we're young, we're already thought not to take risk and that's why the rich people are the ones who are doing all of the risk taking. But thank goodness that this exposure that everyone needs to take a risk and do what they think is bearable so that they can have a better life. Investing isn't for all and that's why the lazy people's mindset is to get rich whatever it takes and however long it does requires. The opportunities are there and we should grab them while we can. Everyone understands that empires aren't built overnight and even the lazy as they say understands that.

[Smack That Ace]

Simply put, investing is just one of many ways to create wealth. It is not just for lazy people or hardworking people. Calling investing something for lazy people is an oversimplification, because investing well still takes time to learn, do your research, and manage risk.

However, a lot of investors have the wrong mindset. Many people still think all they need to do is save more, buy Bitcoin or some random altcoin and wait. They expect to end up rich like the early adopters while doing little to improve their skill or grow their income.

I would bet plenty of people still think that way. They have it all wrong.

Click bait, rage bait, etc to trigger the target audience. That's how to catch everyone's attention.

Not really. Investment is for smart working people. We all have preferences, and business is not for everyone. This has always been the balance. There are providers and consumers. So, those who don't want to engage in business/entrepreneurships, they tend to look for other ways to multiply their money which bears lesser risks than putting up their own business, and not everyone is capable of running one.

[Oshio-man]

I disagree with you op, one of the richest man in our country is a richest man and he got his wealth through investment but not through bitcoin investment, which is what is attracting people to gather enough funds to divide the funds to invest part in bitcoin and other investment, that will make their dreams to come to reality, it will be difficult for lazy people to gather enough capital that will reach them to purchase enough bitcoin that will give them the confidence to hold for long term, and many people know that holding bitcoin for long term is the easiest way to earn huge income that will turn your financial status.

[Jody.Drummer]

Investments are made to review the future or to prepare for the future, especially in financial terms, therefore people who make investments are not lazy people but wise people because they are able to think about the future and also prepare for it. Basically, innovation is not only for lazy people, but more precisely for those who think about their future fate. Lazy people will not think about their future they will only think about their life at that time by prioritizing their lifestyle at that time without thinking about their future. Just like someone who has an income from trading, there was once a case where my neighbor did not have a job but he had an income from trading until it became a rumor that he was doing something bad but when others found out the fact they wanted to learn to be able to make money in trading.  But trading and investing is different, it's just that I think this can be said to be a job that is not seen immediately.

To call or not to call investors lazy is possible only based on their scale and goals. If an ordinary average non-rich person invests, he is only trying to earn or at least save his money from inflation in this way. Because there is no other way for him. He can't create his own corporation and launch satellites - he doesn't have the finances for it. This is not laziness, but limited opportunities.

It is quite another matter when a rich heir invests (now about 80% of the rich are heirs). The rich heir doesn't want to do anything. He just wants to earn income and enjoy himself in idleness. That is why investment funds have appeared that manage the money of idle idlers. In relation to this kind of investors, it is quite acceptable to talk about laziness.

[Obulis]

The perspective that investment is for lazy people is actually common among let me say ordinary people people who all they think is becoming wealthy and showing off having all the time in the world and many other reasons that subtly many have that idea that investment will make an investor lazy and so it's for lazy people but on the real sense an investor need to be intelligent and also needs intelligent team to help project the business. Many other investors or rich or wealthy people I know you can't identify when they visit their company or business place you see them helping in doing one thing or the other in that order and on a general ground they're a major driver of change that's growth (innovation) to the business. Some investors are actually lazy and some are not so since lazy seems to carry more relaxation it becomes more prominent that investment is for lazy people but that has never been true even yester years.

[jcojci]

Investment is for all people but maybe people who don't want to confuse or feels bothers to manage the business will choose investment and wait for the result. They prefers doing that because they can reducing their time to manage and just find the other things that can makes them feels excited. The passion will be play on this matter because if they don't get that, they will not bothers to enter and manage it. If they see the chances for profit but they don't want to manage or running directly, they will invests their money and let others manages it.

It's necessary to seize limited opportunities. You need to protect the value of your money against inflation. You need to invest and strive to achieve your desired goals. All of these are characteristics of investors, and labeling them as lazy might not be accurate.

Investing in a good business might seem like laziness, but researching opportunities and knowing what's valuable beforehand is not an easy task. While using the term "laziness" in relation to investing might be accurate at times, it's generally not true for those who research before investing and minimize risk.

[tsaroz]

Manpower and capital are two essential inputs for production. A man can't physically be involved in multiple jobs while idle capital could help several production.
It's either you working or your money working. The people investing are not lazy but are trying to make their idle capital work. The collection and concentration of small capitals making a big one would move the economy.

‎When I read the headline at first, I found it quite provocative, but taking a closer look through Iyinoluwa Aboyeji’s comment, what I understood from a deeper perspective has more to do with entrepreneurship versus passive allocation.
‎
‎Where I got interested and had some agreement with him was when he cited a well known figure like Elon Musk, who built his current wealth status primarily by deeply embedding himself in the grueling daily execution of his companies Tesla and SpaceX task, by being an active person, rather than operating as only a traditional portfolio investor.
‎I agree that investment is more for the realistic kind of person than it is for every kind of Tom, Deke or Harry.

I disagree that investment is totally for lazy people with these few points;
- inasmuch as you want to be hands-on like Elon Musk is doing at his companies, it's not everyone that acts like that. The aim is to have your money work and grow for you. Just because you are not involved in the day to day operations doesn't mean you don't get to input in decisions. Trump has so many investments but he's not as heavily involved in all of them as Musk, does that make him lazy?
- Obviously, as business person it's not entirely wrong to be a passive investor and even though it's regarded as an easy way out of involving yourself with the nitty gritty of the business, its still better than those who don't have an investment portfolio or who do but criticize those who may not be doing it to their tastes. Musk owns X formerly Twitter but I bet you he's not as heavily involved as one would like compared to his involvement in companies like SpaceX or Tesla cause to me these are like his favorites.

[Mimiklinton]

Rather investment is not for lazy people and their are so many factors to be successful to an investment and if you are lazy you can never make it in investment.  Investment is risky and if you are lazy you may not be ready to go through the stress to risk for an investment.  Investment is more of patience and if you dont have patient enough it is impossible to give your time to an investment to see the investment grows. Lazy people wants investment that will bring quick profit and they are not willing to have patience.  Investment is not easy and it is not for the weak and I wonder how lazy people can be to make in investment if investment is for the lazy people.  When lazy people tries to make an investment all they do is to complain and to make excuses .

Every investor clearly has an understanding and a method they will use to invest, using methods they fully understand. This means that no investor will immediately invest in anything if it could cause them difficulties later, especially if their investment goals are long-term, as their considerations will certainly be more carefully considered.

And when talking about rich people, anyone might easily separate other investment capital from the capital they will invest in Bitcoin, but considering that there are not many rich people, I am talking more about simple people who also want to be investors and try to buy Bitcoin gradually with the capital they have even though they might make purchases in installments every week or every month.
