Right now, best thing to buy is bitcoin, as the hardfork drama is going on and price has fallen from $1200+ to $1080.
So after this drama gets over in near future, price will surely surge back to the previous high.
I think the drama is over, for now. The price is increasing in a steady phase. So it likely that the price will surely pick up to where it was pre-ETF and maybe more. If I have big money to invest, I would go to real estates. Because real estate rise in value overtime so this is a good investment options.
You can even rent it to others so to generate more income.Once you have several properties, it becomes easier to purchase and manage more properties. So for me, houses or real estate for long term investments.
The drama wont be over until a solution is found where we could transact faster and with low fees and until then we will see these sort of drama popping up and the price would swing according to that and on the other hand if you are holding millions then real estate investment are a good platform if you are looking for a long term investment and when it comes to gold you dont expect a massive swing in price any time soon,every investment has its own risk and it all depends upon how your mentality and understanding is regarding each investment.
