I have USD 2000 to invest. Should I buy Bitcoins or gold?

I don't know what would be better to hold for 1 year but only invest what you can afford to loose in bitcoin.
Not saying BTC won't be around in 1 year just that i know gold will and it would be safer to put 80% into gold and 20% BTC.

gold? give it up quickly, you see how decadent it is.

if you invest bitcoin, you could expect it doubled in a year

Give Bitcoin a try. Bitcoin wont stay at 290 for long. It will increase in the next 12 months.

Hello @lumen just wondering if you already decide it and if you want to share it with us, what you did finally?I am asking just from curiosity as there was three mainly choices and i like to see which one you preferred and if we affect your opinion on your decision.I wish you good luck for whatever your choice is/was.

Kind Regards,

I have earn some money investing in companies undervaluated. Bitcoin could be in that situation now. It can be a good oportunity.

Every company on here could be big. Imagine investing in primedice if they were selling some shares, you would be swimming cash if you did. But investing is a lot of fun here especially with the HYIPs, getting in and out fast with 5% in a day is nice.

Buy bitcoin and invest half in various alt coins, watch it vapourise  or multiply.. good luck

Did you really come to a Bitcoin forum to ask which is better gold or Bitcoin?

The answer is simple. With gold you have less to gain, but also less to lose. Bitcoin can go to a couple bucks and basically cease to exist as an investment. Gold on the other hand won't become worthless, but it also won't triple its value like Bitcoin did in the past (and still can).

I'd park my money in Bitcoin for sure and then if there's a certain % you're saving for outside investing, then get yourself a property that generates rent. Properties for rent can typically generate 5-15% per year but in a good/great year, BTC runs the table on that. Properties are a headache since tenants are a problem and paying taxes as well + renovation costs when you have to flip.

If you know how to farm land (in rural areas) then I would do that aside from everything except buying and holding bitcoin. Getting some chickens and cattle would be of good use over and above farming such land imo. If you want to raise animals for furs the same still applies. Rural farming/animal raising properties cost quite a bit less than rentals in residential dealing areas.

I'd go for garages or storage units. You often have a much higher yield with a fraction of the ball ache. Any structure that houses humans equals a world of pain.

Valuable posting info. However, garages or storage facilities are decent ideas but can be faulty having multiple folks descending upon your spot over and over could be over and above the purchase cost and for sure the rental cost I'd say.

I'd think they would be somewhat cheap and efficient in terms of earnings. If someone doesn't pay their storage, you get all their stuff (or get to sell it). So you have income whether or not people pay their bills. Upkeep should be fairly cheap as well, since storage units don't need to be heated/air conditioned to the same standard as other businesses.

Gold is a better investment if you're in it for the long term. With bitcoin, I could only recommend short term as the price is everchanging. One day, you could see prices spike past 500, and the day after, you could be in for a loss. With this said, it is your choice.

[avatar_kiyoshi]

If me, I will invest to gold half and bitcoin half, sell all my bitcoin for halving time.
And gold for long term.

There is a little problem with selling the stuff of people that cannot pay the rent of their storage unit... why would someone who cannot pay the rent for his storage place have valuable items to store?
They might have something that is worth your time and effort.. but i can also imagine that there is just a lot of crap that you might have to get disposed of at your expense.

If you want to play extra safe, buy gold. If you want to take some risk with a potentially higher upside, go for BTC. You can also try trading with BTC and it can be immensely profitable due to the high volatility.

[DonQuijote]

Buy and hold?
If you buy btc you could buy before a pump, 50% profit is easy

gold!!

[HarmonLi]

Well I personally would prefer Bitcoin. They've got uncanny similarities, esp. in terms of scarcity. So in the long term they may perform in an equal manner (go up) but Bitcoin has a higher risk, but potentially also higher reward potential.
