NNumbers 21 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I've never dived into crypto but my gf and I have a well diversified portfolio. Mix of growth / dividend stocks in mine and etfs in hers. Biggest gains include 13x return on Tesla I bought 2 years ago. Avg cost basis of $49, roughly $250 back before the split 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love to see some investment talk, personally all in index funds at the moment but have about 10k in Amazon as my only single stock holding. I typically pick a handful of "outperformers" each year, and the rest stays in my index funds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Req 227 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Can't buy crypto due to job ? Some good gains for those who had it though. Even if I had bought, it'd probably be gone now as one of the crypto exchanges in Canada (QuadrigaCX) turned out to be a scam! It's an interesting story if you haven't heard it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shinobi 36 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 (edited) I was shocked when I came to these forums and did not see much mention of Bitcoin. Glad to see this now. I learned about Bitcoin around the summer of 2013, thought it was some Reddit circlejerk. It wasn't until 2017 when I finally put some time aside to learn about Bitcoin, and invest in it. One of my top performers since I started investing few years ago. #Bitcoin is here to stay, and it's most likely to reach six digits very soon (after a few crashes in price, of course). I think we all have different risk-tolerance levels, and also are in different [financial] positions in our lives. All I will say is that you can easily beat [by many multiples] ETF/Index Funds' performance if you're willing to put hours and efforts into researching and analyzing different angles of certain investments/stocks. I am not a day trader, so I usually buy assets for the long term. Talking about years, not months. My big winners are Tesla, Netflix, Square, Amazon, Paypal, Apple, Microsoft, and some others. * It's also worth mentioning Real Estate (RE). Ventured into RE this year. Montreal's RE market is going to end up like Toronto & Vancouver very soon! Edited January 3, 2021 by Shinobi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And did you make money off any of those meta companies tesla/netflix etc before they went huge or have you just invested in those recently? 1 Quote Ex-Envy Leader / Ex-Genesis Council / Ex-Divine Forces App Reviewer / Tempest Legend / Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I made 3x or 4x+ for some of those stocks, so far of course. I think by ~2023 some of these investments will be 10x+ from what I originally put in. Many more gains to be had, basically. RE is a long game, I just bought my condo end of last summer so it's way too early to say anything. But I'm confident I've gained ~20% value on it already (as I said, Montreal's RE prices are a bit crazy since COVID), which is massive considering the prices of RE/etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
