Achieving significant returns isn't about volatile stocks; it's about effectively balancing risk and reward. Proper position sizing and leveraging your advantage repeatedly are essential, whether you're a long-term investor or a day trader.
Certainly, many underestimate advisors until emotions lead to losses. A few summers ago, during a tough divorce, I sought a licensed advisor who, through diligent work, boosted my business from $190k to around $720k despite inflation.
The Adviser I'm in touch with is *'Jude Ryan McDonough'* , he works with Merrill, Pierce, Smith incorporated and interviewed on CNBC Television. You can use something else. for me her strategy works hence my result. He provides entry and exit point for the securities I focus on.

Firstly, Crypto is not only bitcoin. There are stablecoins (tokens pegged to USD and backed by reserves) such as USDC and BUSD which are infinitely printable. Secondly the ability for the fed to print unlimited money is precisely the reason why the USD is experiencing hyperinflation and loss of value. This is why scarce assets with limited or fixed supply (i.e. a New York penthouse, Florida beachside mansion, gold and Bitcoin which was less than 1c) has appreciated in the long term relative to USD, particularly in nominal terms.
Infinite value via another new-flavor-of-the-week crypto that comes out being shilled by bots all over the internet in comment sections, and then people will be crying about Fed's FDIC insurance and the government should have done more to protect their money from cult-like crypto supporters.
This is precisely the reason we’re in this situation now. We want to stop printing money. Very simply put if you had a one of a kind Babe Ruth baseball card worth idk $200k and then all of a sudden more of the same cards entered the market somehow…well you can imagine what would happen the value of your card.

Barely anyone can. It's complicated as hell. Many wise investors have said not to invest in something that you can't understand. Put another way...don't invest in something that you couldn't teach. Businesses are relatively simple. Crypto is horrifically complex...and Buffett's point about it having no intrinsic value is spot in.

Are people not somewhat tired of this smug, dismissive attitude towards Bitcoin, at this point ? Watch what it does over the next 20 years and you only have yourself to blame for not just putting literally 1% of your NW into it. The ego and pride are amazing.....
What Buffet and Munger care about is productivity, that's the essence. That's why they do not like sitting assets like bitcoin or possibly gold. Does bitcoin produce something? To some extent, economy or business is all about productivity.
@John Gildea Bitcoin is money that can't be printed so it doesn't need to be backed by anything. You just simply spend it. No need to go to some sleazy banker to get something physical before they print more currency and steal your purchasing power. In fact, once you back any currency or any cryptocurrency by anything you introduce the reasons why gold always fails as money. Centralization, high fees, and the trusted 3rd party. We've already seen gold backed cryptos fail like INNcoin.
@@inconvenientexistenlism Banks offer FDIC protection typically up to $250,000, but that doesn't protect you from a devaluing dollar. The dollar is backed my nothing but faith in the government and since 2020 they have printed it into oblivion.
Either they have done their research and are afraid of this technology taking over the fiat world, or they haven't and should not be giving advice regarding a trillion dollar asset they do not understand. Bitcoin (not other crypto) is sound money and will make Central Banks irrelevant in time. Legacy finacial players will say anything to protect their failing assets. Other crypto assets will find the winners and drive applications that will replace those legacy systems. The Establishment should not fight it but embrace it and evolve.
No they are not afraid of technology! Just bitcoin as a crypto is actually obsolete. Nowadays we have crypto which serves as a resource for projects and funding. Tether is an instrument for dollar transactions and so on. Bitcoin is actually useless one way or other. Bitcoin is only useful for criminals and that is FACT!!!!

BTC doesn't exist to make money, it exists to be a 100% varifiable money that has portability and ownership that no one can change.

Cash left in the system is bound to decrease unless theres someone willing to put MORE money in than whats going out through fees/profittaking. Your argument doesnt address these key negative points. All startups have their bells and whistles with their dreams and projected sales/#s, lot of them dont make it through because business model doesnt make financial sense in the end. Same with crypto, its a zero sum game. If someone profit takes from it, there has to be someone putting in MORE money to keep it going. The asset itself doesnt make money unlike stocks which the company does make profits and feeds $ into the system.

cause people are using dollars to get it , and those dollars are not getting taxed, its taking money out of the economy mostly in USD
Bitcoin isn’t a threat, quite the opposite. It’s very possible Bitcoin will save the USD. I want both and they compliment each other very nicely. USD as the medium of exchange, once it’s made truly digital, and Bitcoin as the store of value; just like the gold standard but much better. It will be resistant to the corrupt financial and political system.

Basically he’s saying that he doesn’t understand cryptos and the blockchain
the fed has the ability to print more money... crypto does not, it has a finite value.
Firstly, Crypto is not only bitcoin. There are stablecoins (tokens pegged to USD and backed by reserves) such as USDC and BUSD which are infinitely printable. Secondly the ability for the fed to print unlimited money is precisely the reason why the USD is experiencing hyperinflation and loss of value. This is why scarce assets with limited or fixed supply (i.e. a New York penthouse, Florida beachside mansion, gold and Bitcoin which was less than 1c) has appreciated in the long term relative to USD, particularly in nominal terms.
Infinite value via another new-flavor-of-the-week crypto that comes out being shilled by bots all over the internet in comment sections, and then people will be crying about Fed's FDIC insurance and the government should have done more to protect their money from cult-like crypto supporters.
This is precisely the reason we’re in this situation now. We want to stop printing money.

The USA gave you and everyone else 90% of the worthwhile inventions you use every day; phone, smart phone, electricity, cars, planes, tvs, internet etc etc. Without the USA you wouldn't be posting on TH-cam, and likely be living in a hut on a dirt floor banging coconuts. Never forget that.
Straight facts.
@@sprattmann4541 how much did you lose little Spratt? Hahah. Well let me guess , you got offended with the facts mentioned about the US ? Now go on and make a fool of yourself by calling putin a dictator . Hahahah.
@@lethargic2221 LMAO. Putin is no dictator. I love these anti Americans that use all the products we created because they are too lazy and unintelligent to come up with their own inventions. The laughable part is these anti-Americans are 99% of the time just Americans posing as people that don't like Americans. It's so laughable. So like I said unplug your computer, smart phone, internet and never come to TH-cam again. All the inventions of brilliant Americans. No more comments for you! Said in soup Nazi accent. lol
@@lethargic2221 if you don’t think Putin is a dictator you’re the dummy. He suppresses freedom of speech, murders political rivals, and engages in cronyism to make himself wealthy. Yeah he checks all the boxes you dolt.
You shouldn’t become emotionally attached with your investments that’s rule 1. Look at how many people in the comments are butthurt he criticized their investment, take another look at how bad you look cry in the comments.
Emotionally attached? Why the passive aggressive comment then?
Yet those stupid fund managers actually want them to retire, plotting to break up the company.
So sad to see experienced business men dismiss a solution to every major central bank's incentive to deflate fiat currency as "stupid."
They're RICH for a reason. Let's see you be rich then if you're if you think you're such an expert, rather than wasting time charading in comment sections, like all the BOTS' "People will be kicking themselves by not investing in this and that with Mr. Smith."
@@inconvenientexistenlism They aren’t JUST smart, but corrupt and greedy. He doesn’t like BTC and said his reason… he thinks that central banks are important because they possess sole monetary control over the population. He said the quiet part out loud. He wants you to stay poor and him to stay rich, they hold the assets and want to inflate your money into dirt. They may be smart, but it’s easy to win when you can rig the entire monetary system into a major tailwind for yourself.
You don't understand how economy works
2% inflation is great for economy because it stimulates people spending on economy and investing cash
BTC idea of fixed non inflating supply is dumb, Japan had a problem of inflation less than 1% and it was terrible for their economy because people dont want to spend money
When you make a BILLION
I will start listening to you
@@urosuros2072 Their target is "stable prices" and the central bank decided that means 2% CPI. CPI is not inflation. Inflation is the expansion of the money supply and that (measured against any real asset) is a hell of a lot higher than 2%.
i just see a couple of dinosaurs who couldnt see BTC, tesla, shopify, google, facebook, apple, netlfix or uber coming from a mile away !!
Much respect for what these 2 have acheived, but I'm sorry, unfortunately all humans get old, and all humans assume nothing will change. Buffett is 100% correct in that bitcoin produces nothing, unlike property or a company. The point is that over the longer term, fiat currencies are dying, and the USD is the best of a dying breed. We don't know for sure how much of it is out there, supply changes all the time. BTC doesn't exist to make money, it exists to be a 100% varifiable money that has portability and ownership that no one can change. The idea is that effectively land and companies will be priced in BTC, not dollars.
These guys are so old and so rich they are just failing to see change, they have been so successful that it has clouded their judgement.
Damn, you must be rich and smart than those old folks
@@MsSkydude Well you have confined yourself to only following others advise, just go all in on Berkshire shares and go back to work and don’t bother reading anything else. Who’s advise will you follow after these two pass on?
Warren said theres nothing backing up this security. Also "profits" are money from people whos willing to pay more for it. Cash left in the system is bound to decrease unless theres someone willing to put MORE money in than whats going out through fees/profittaking. Your argument doesnt address these key negative points. All startups have their bells and whistles with their dreams and projected sales/#s, lot of them dont make it through because business model doesnt make financial sense in the end. Same with crypto, its a zero sum game. If someone profit takes from it, there has to be someone putting in MORE money to keep it going. The asset itself doesnt make money unlike stocks which the company does make profits and feeds $ into the system.
People say Bitcoin will get to $100k or $1m. But I’d say it will be worth more than $100T. It will like comparing money with the Zimbabwean dollar. Hyper inflation. I missed the first couple off bull runs, but now I’m all in on it. I won’t miss this opportunity to get RICH
All crypto was based on math. As soon as someone discovers a flaw in the algorithm, or make some new math discovery, or quantum computers get fast enough… And every single cryptocurrency is going to go to zero immediately
I invest in things that I personally find valuable. Bitcoin had absolutely zero value to me - I could care less what others think.
It is definitely going to 0 at some point, just not this century.
Charlie Munger looks and talks like the professor in Futurama.
Fiat money is the future
An investment in bitcoin is an emotional one. Not a rational one....
Said the poor man holding his bonds that are making negative returns because they don't even beat the inflation caused by mindless printing in order to patch up the self-made corona virus hole made by the mindless lock downs, while I'm up by 410% in less than 2 years
These guys just made me a believer of Bitcoin. Thanks!
you have no clue dude
Remember that one time you are broke and they had 75 billion dollars

Too old to understand the future of technology. Cash money isn't forever.
If it goes to zero, how can it undermine the reserve system? My dude countered one of his arguements with another without realizing...
I mean look at them. Dinosaurs whom are way past the expiration date.
Nice point. This shows manipulation.
If crypto is a currency why you need 💵 to buy it.
0:40 you are right, the USA needs to stay in charge of the USD if they want to stay in power the way they are now. But every other country and individual on earth can benefit from another direction.
Perhaps it’s foolish to underestimate that 🤷🏻♂️
nonsense
@@ozinvesting6517 great added value, thank you for your contribution 😘
Bitcoin is constructed to do what individuals like FED and politicians can not accomplish. They do not like it but Bitcoin works. Every person on the planet can buy Bitcoin and watch it grow in value. No single goverment can "destroy" its value.
Not governments but only individuals can destroy its value, come on the price moves on tweets, there are many crypto that do what BTC does, its not unique anymore, its just popular, wait for the party to move
@@92teja I seen it rise since 2013. I trust in Bitcoin more than anything else. It is technology created to solve the problem inherent in goverment money.
@@joachimlindback BTC is so volatile that it can’t be treated as a currency, we can’t trade with it on large scale. you say it’s a store of value it behave like a overpriced tech stock that corrects every time there is a tapering, and during inflation stocks or gold are better bet because it’s for sure limited supply and unique use cases. If you want to transfer across globe you can use any crypto to do that not just btc and wait for CBDC to show up. And most of the people don’t care for decentralisation they are in it to make money in short term. If that the case I agree with you. value can’t be destroyed on short term
@@92teja I can predict Bitcoins value in 2033 and by then many companies people invest in has gone bust.
@@joachimlindback It hasn't solved any problems, its only created more problems for the government with increased fraud , crime, tax evasion. A developed government will never allow a decentralised currency to take over there own centralised currency, because they think rationally. And rationally speaking, a decentralised currency will not work in the current global economy, and would cause major financial collapse. How will we fund a government if they cannot print money or earn money from taxes?... mining bitcoin?, i don't think so mate.
Wisdom sounds like my grandparents. I don’t believe they cared for tribalism either. Not sure if they voted for Roosevelt.
I wonder what will happen if USA stops printing money!!!

I'm willing to bet they are likely correct on crypto. They are brilliant , like it or not with almost 200 years of extremely successful ventures and experience.
Charlie came for the free coke, the chocolates, and to smack talk BTC lol
