If the next 20 years play out anywhere close to how the market has performed over the previous 20 years, I'll be golden.
The problem is that I have very little faith in the system. Globalists are getting desperate, and we know they're willing to burn everything down if they think they'll rule over what's left.
Obviously I can't just stick my money in a mattress because inflation would kill me. I own gold and BTC (combined about 10% of the total), but otherwise it's mostly in VOO with sprinklings in individual stocks.
I feel like my only real option is to let it ride and hope I can retire before the collapse. Even if the market only slightly beats inflation I'll still be set.
Anyone disagree and think there's a better option?
There's a difference between buying things to invest and hope they appreciate, and buying things to hold value that aren't money.
If you stop thinking about investment vehicles and financial products, you can just start buying valuable things that can be resold. Shit man Lego holds it's value well. I wouldn't recommend it but it does.
I'd add that land is not land. If and when the collapse comes, it's unlikely that the migrant population will remain in large numbers because there's no financial incentive to stay. The rats will leave the sinking ship. So buying land for the sake of it mightn't help, you have to buy land that is valuable to people that live here. Good luck getting that at a reasonable price though.
