The kinds and choice of investment that anyone may propose to venture into, as a newbie or as an oldie, could be adversely affected by the place they live in or their region of residency.
The time I would have agreed more of this "when one resident would affect their choice of investment" is when there's no infrastructure development, no road network, or Internet connection to the place one resides.
A resident or region that has a working system that its citizens need to live and strife for the betterment of their life, their resident will be a boost to the choice of investment they would like to go into, be it physical or online investment.
The lack of social amenities could obviously lead a case on the kind of influence it has on the willing investors in a particular region of residency.
Hence why it is imperative that Bitcoin become very visible to everyone who has access to internet, is connected to the cable network and is willing and open to learn about the updates and trends like cryptocurrency that is decentralized and private and is a better option than investment in local companies that only want to recognize one and find a way to keep billing them.
