From Trust to Turmoil: Lesson on Friendship and Business l Craig Cecilio
Craig Cecilio's Worst Investment Ever:
Craig had a potential business partner introduced to him by a friend. The partner had a land deal and convinced Craig to invest $10,000. A couple of other people joined in and deposited about $250,000 into the land development deal in New Mexico. A week went by, and the investors got ghosted by the land deal owner.
BIO: Craig Cecilio is a visionary disruptor and CEO of DiversyFund, dedicated to democratizing wealth building. He has broken barriers in private markets, raising over $1 billion and offering investment opportunities once reserved for the elite.
LEARNING: Don’t mix friendship with business. Do your due diligence on all the parties involved in the transaction.
“Assume everybody is a crook and work backward. That’s the key to underwriting and any investment.” - Craig Cecilio

    You forgot #3: counterparty risk. Trusting our governments to be fiscally responsible with fiat currency is too high of an ask these days. Gold is a safe haven in the sense that it can not be inflated at the whim of a central bank or commercial bank.

    Stocks that pay dividends that increase with inflation is the perfect investment when you retire, you need to accumulate them during your working life.

  • @actualfacts1055
    @actualfacts1055 หลายเดือนก่อน

    If you had zero inflation then gold would not increase in value.

  • @actualfacts1055
    @actualfacts1055 หลายเดือนก่อน

    You need an investment that gains by more than inflation otherwise you are not actually increasing your wealth.

  • @actualfacts1055
    @actualfacts1055 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Gold increases in value with inflation so you are not making anything compared to inflation.

  • @actualfacts1055
    @actualfacts1055 หลายเดือนก่อน

    If you keep increasing the stockpile of gold and never make anything from it of course it will keep increasing in value just like any other metal would.

    1 min in and this is the dumbest s. debt-to-gdp is literally 120%. to explain simply to you, that's like having a mortgage bill greater than your income, ok. literally part of the plandemic was a guise to create massive inflation to off-set this blatant bankruptcy and cover financial institutions, keeping them liquid and afloat. 'Trump''s coming in, and i bet you he's going to monetize the gold reserves to pay off the debt to reasonable levels. you can do the math for that on your own, (right?) this is why the central banks have been hoarding gold, the BIS classified it tier 1, and of course why Russia has a ridiculously, disproportionately large gold reserve, (literally increasing buying through this trump dip.) ... figure it out, ... what's that word... ah... ya -- dilettante

  • @seancsnm

    I think this guy is mostly right. If you are young and just buy gold instead of any other investment you will probably at least track a major index like the SP500 over 30 years without the counterparty risk. Commodities are much better inflation hedges but they will rise before it shows up in the cpi. Commodity and PM producers are terrible long term but go crazy during community bull markets. The thing you need to consider is what happens to currency at the end of long stable periods spanning a century or more. That is why I buy gold. It's not about getting rich, it's about avoiding a collapse in my standard of living. Crypto, tech stocks, risky commodity producers, meme stocks - those are for getting rich.
