Successful  investing needs smart work like patience and research also calculated risk and an emotional discipline because buying an asset is easy if u have money but holding it when market crashes and in bad times without making emotional decisions are tough. Business and investing generate wealth in two different ways. Entrepreneurs solves problem and create value by building products and services while investors provide capital to business and assets in which they believe will grow. Both paths are not easy and many of the world's wealthiest people do both. So i think investing in an asset is not a shortcut and laziness  it is a long term strategy that rewards discipline and research.

If you are lazy you can't make an investment i don't think it will possibly to call an investor a lazy person because lazy will always keep on procrastinating on what should do to grow wealth in the future, to succeed in life you should be hard and smart working lazy people wait for treasure to come meet them with lots of excuses why are aren't moving forward.

So what would you call those who want to get rich quick by trading highly leveraged futures, based on other people's signal? Or those who throw borrowed money into memecoin on DEX hoping for x100 or x1000 returns? To me, that is also a form of laziness, and those people are lazy investors.

Laziness is not simply about procrastinating or refusing to work. It is also about looking for quick way to get rich instead of taking the time to learn and work hard.

The title was deliberately made like that to lure people to read and the point of Iyinoluwa Aboyeji comment makes a lot of sense in my opinion. What I get from the core of the argument is Operator vs Investor, Elon Musk is the most obvious example, in this case his position as "operator". He didn't just buy Tesla stock and sit back, his wealth continued to grow because he built his own self-worth so he could sleep in the office, hire competent workers, fire employees, and redesign batteries. While investors are more inclined to buy Bitcoin, Stocks, gold and other valuable assets, then save them and wait for up to 10 years, this pattern is very realistic for most people because they do not have the will and ability to build their company.

Investing isn't for everyone in the same way, if you have the skills, connections and business ideas, it would be a shame to just be an investor, because your resources could be much more increased if used to build something. Not everyone has to be like Elon Musk because building a business has big risks and not a few fail, so the alternative is "Investment" so that your wealth does not depend on a particular job or business. The function of investment is like a machine that is ready to work anytime while you are sleeping. So the problem is not whether business is better than investment or vice versa, but if you are able to walk, then walk, if you can't, at least don't stay where you are, at least there must be support, in this case investment.

Investment is not for lazy people. Rather, those who are hardworking and think about the future are the ones who mainly go towards investment. They earn while they have time and save thinking about the future. Because they know that it will not be possible to earn for the entire period of their life. So they imagine the time when they will not be able to earn and save. So that they do not have to suffer financially in the future. And lazy people do not think about the future, they just want to manage their lives in some way.

To maintain wealth and manipulate it and make more wealth from previous wealth investing is one of the most useful weapon. But for successful investing a lot of planning and patience is required because in investing we don't expect anything in our favour and not every individual has the ability to do investing and taking risk. I think people has enough money for invest in different assets but they don't have proper knowledge for investment. it's not the big problem because it can be manged through education and by taking step with small investments. If we start with simple and low risk then gradually we grow and learn from our mistakes and make a huge capital for bigger investments when we gain experience through passing this channel. So in this way we should have good financial habits and always keep updated by New skills and information if we become successful investors.

Laziness is a very big problem in human life. This laziness keeps people behind in all aspects, it is not possible to make any progress with them due to laziness. To be successful, hard work is always important as well as consistency, along with practical planning is necessary. You have to be hardworking and not only save money, but you have to actually plan for it and move yourself forward for investment. You have to learn how to use money, you can always achieve good wealth not only through hard work but also through effective planning. But for these, you need to have your own will, you need to be hardworking and at the same time you need to remove all your laziness.

‎So I ask,

Your definition who is a lazy person answers this question for you.

If you are the type that believe in only people that go out to work physically every day or five days in a week are hardworking, and consider people with skills like programming and good idea that can generate money for them at the comfort of their homes as lazy people, that means your answer to this question is yes.

Everyone can invest, it all depends on you and your sources of income, staying at home, going on physical work and other jobs doesn’t stop you from investing if you want.

Lazy people can never make and investment because they won’t have a lot of time to study well and focus on there investment, and I always notice that people that are lazy a lot can’t risk there funds because they are scared to lose money and they prefer to get fast money they don’t want anything that will stress them up in the crypto space so just people can’t be patient to invest in bitcoin or any investment that can bring them profits. When you notice someone is a lazy person don’t bother to explain things to him because he won’t listen because they have feel discouraged when ever you told them to be patient.

If you're not innovative and creative you can't invest, so anyone who is into investment is not lazy is innovative, lazy people doesn't have the time to be creative neither innovative, but people have a foresight are the people who is innovative and they're super strong because of their creativity...I'm not of the opinion that what makes investors to invest is because they're lazy...

[HelliumZ]

The title is really absurd because where it is said that investment is only for lazy people, the matter is wrong because lazy people always think that they will sit and eat. Investment is the work of a completely active person because active people are entrepreneurs as well as they are good investors. Lazy people are also mentally lazy and can never think creatively. Whereas active people always think about long-term plans and how to implement them. Moreover, investment is basically according to the right plan and how much profit or loss the investment will give in the future, which is basically very difficult for lazy people to think about.

The alternative to investment is speculation and neither is a negative by itself.  Speculation is more about price discovery in a market which in turn informs investment decisions, you cant ignore either especially as markets even daily prices still rely on long term macro investment themes.
   Theres nothing lazy about a farmer who invests, time effort and money into land all year round only to be paid once a year maybe and thats not for sure.  Most would acknowledge that form of practical investment as one of the most hard working involved professions.   Competition makes even paper investment not easy most of the time though the ideal is you make it look that way, the paragon of the swan sailing on the surface but working hard out of sight is about right.

lazy people are good at one thing, they will you give you all kind of silly excuses  why they are not better and have not grow financially. They can't utilise opportunities available to them it's either they are procrastinating or giving one silly excuses or the other why they can't invest in a platform,start up a business or learn a skill. Lazy people only think of today they dont care about their tomorrow they are scared of anything that would stress them. For me lazy people can't be good for any business or investment this is because they will not have the energy to manage it that business will probably collapse in a matter of time.

I have the same sentiment about the title as lazy people can never in any way be intentional about taking risk because investment itself has it's shares of potential risks let alone having the preparation for managing such risks,  a lazy person can not have the patient that is required for an investment to grow, an investment has processes and not something a lazy person can handle, what you said about the lazy person only wanting to eat without working is the direct definition of a lazy person as they only wish on what they want without making efforts on how they can have those wishes comes to reality.

For every investment to survive it actually requires a lot of hardworking and patience, this two factors can not be found with a lazy person, yeah just define a lazy person because that is how they behave, the lack so many things on how to make any investment grow, just as you said the Patience will not be there for a lazy person because already they are always eager to see the Returns and that is how they're investment collapse. In this case lazy people are not in the category people that can invest that is why I will say that they investment is not for them. They can easily give up in the process because always all the investments don't start bringing profit immediately they started, require time, consistency and patience before it can be achieved.

It looks quite funny because no lazy person can afford to invest anything reasonable at all. So it makes no sense when we get it twisted and think investment are for lazy people, that's absolutely unacceptable and quite annoying. There are many things that lazy people find difficult to do, and we are know that investment requires a lot of work. They can't handle it without complaining, so investment is not for the weak. Let's make things easier for ourselves and understand that investment involves many things.

[Mate2237]

I think that this Iyinoluwa Aboyeji guy is actually getting it wrong, for as much as I know when it comes to business there are levels to business whether you are investing or building one thing is sure and that is value is been created and problems are been solved. There are people with the capital who just want to put their money into a business as a firm of investment. Such as buying shares on a company, you can't call such people as been lazy.


A lazy man is not one that will even be ready to invest in anything, anyone who has taken the courage to invest should not be seen as lazy.

[EarnOnVictor]

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

That is one of the issues with the current state of money and ownership, many have created wealth for themselves without giving back to society, economy, and generally without having intrinsic values.

But in the end, money is money, and access to it and it's ownership can't be denied once it's yours. For me though, we need to balance this by specifically define the kind of investment we are talking about. By all definitions and principles, some investment are not for the lazy people. But surely, many are, especially the electronic investments.

Laziness is not simply about procrastinating or refusing to work. It is also about looking for quick way to get rich instead of taking the time to learn and work hard.

Laziness towards making money is of varied shades and can't be pin pointed to a linear direction as there are people who seemed to be busy towards making money but are rather doing it in a lazy manner. Laziness breeds impatience and greed to want to make at a spot without considering the red flags ahead, otherwise tell me how anyone would not be willing to learn if they weren't lazy. So, it only laziness and greed that actually makes people to take shortcuts in doing anything, including making a highly leverage trading.

‎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.
‎
‎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.

Whether lazy or not lazy just know exactly what you are doing or what you are Investing on, I will say that the laziness may comes through careless decision making, that's feeling lazy to go through a deep verification on what you are about to invest on, some people do convinced by scammers on investing into a non valuable asset like shitcoins, and what some of them are doing is to used the name Bitcoin to scam people, since they believe that the Bitcoin has made name already, so they make use of it to scamm people. However in my own opinions it's better we do proper verification on what we want invest on, that's why it's always advisable to invest in bitcoin because it's the most valuable asset that has a huge potential growths
