You all probably know that leaving your cash in the bank is not the best way to secure your income. Cash does not hold the same value over time. A hundred dollars today can not allow you to buy the number of things that a hundred dollars could buy twenty years ago. There are many things at play like inflation, and interest rates, but so long as you understand you should not leave cash as is and instead invest in something, you will be making better financial decisions. The next question that arises is, where is the best place to invest?
You might have heard the term ‘diversify your investments, which means that you should invest in different markets so if you make a loss in one, you can rest assured that you will make a profit in another. However, if you think about some of the greatest businessmen, then they put all their time and money into one dream and that dream gave them great fruits. Think about Henry Ford, or Bill Gates, or Mark Zuckerberg. They all had one piece of business that they invested their everything into. So why should you not do the same?
To answer this question, you might have also heard the term ‘high risk, high reward. It is not that you can not follow in their footsteps and invest everything into one thing that you believe in, but it is simply discouraged because it is considered risky. Either your dream works out and you reach the skies in your financial success, or you lose everything you own and have nothing to fall back on. If that is a gamble that seems reasonable to you, then you might be one of the few that are willing to risk it all. Otherwise, you might want to consider diversification to play it a little bit safer.
