Of course a good job with a big salary or at least minimum wage is a must for young people. Because it can support what they want including investing. So it is very important for young people in their brain development period to learn and improve their skills in order to easily get a job because currently skills are one of the most important things to make it easier for them to get a job and so that their future is well directed and having a permanent job and a good salary will make them able to realize their desires especially to save and also invest and also other desires for a better future.
And in my opinion if young people who are still in school if they have to save and also invest it is difficult and not as easy as what is said, because their finances are limited and they also have to focus on learning and developing their skills so that after graduating there are results that support them if they want to save and also invest from the results of the work they get because education is also an important investment so that after graduating or in the future the education obtained can generate money and the money can be saved and also invested. And if both of his children are still in school, then he must save or invest where the money is obtained, while the money given by his parents is only enough for school fees, and besides that, in investing there will be risks and it also involves psychologists and this will interfere with his studies.
For young people who are 18 years old, of course they can start investing with $10 regularly or this is savings for their future. By the age of 30 they have been investing 12 years in bitcoin if they start at the age of 18. it is a good step for parents to educate their children to save or invest in bitcoin.
I think many young people are currently earning big incomes from social media, they are good at making money through Youtube, tiktok and so on. So side income when you are still young can of course be used to invest in bitcoin.
If they are able to manage their finances well from a young age, of course their future will be better compared to them splurging by buying luxury goods.
Actually, for this matter, I don't think there are any restrictions on the age and nominal investment made because after all, for things like this, it ultimately comes back to conditions and abilities, especially since we also have to pay attention to where we live and how much income we have in the end.
The age of 18 years old for now in some countries has become an age that is considered an adult and can earn their money independently and it is even possible that at this age it is the initial age to achieve productivity in their economic development so in the end as long as they can afford more then why not but on the other hand there is also no limit to set $ per week / per week as an investment material made because it all comes back to financial conditions in the sense of income they have in every month they get.
Because again investing in the end must still think about income first so that we don't get lost and can't do it well because we can't manage the finances we do so that in the end the investment goal becomes wrong because we are unable to manage our finances properly.
Anyone can decide to own investment in bitcoin even if they are below 18 years because they are basically investing in their future so far as they have the discretionary amount to do so and if they have already started earning money on their own. An 18 years old is considered to have approached an age that they can take their own decision without their parents interfering with their decisions so yeah at that age they are good to go with their investment in bitcoin.
@reefsea should have said that those who are 18 years and above can invest 10% of their income instead of saying $10 because at 18 years, they don't have much responsibility to spend their money on and the amount the will invest will be determined by the size of their income, so within that age is the time of building their future by investing their money rather than spending lavishly. At that age is a time to figure out and make decisions that will clear the path for them in the future because not too long they can enter into marriage and they become tied to responsibilities such that they may not have enough to invest again and also take care of their family so the earlier will be the better for them at that age.
No one starts an investment without a source of income because even for someone who want to invest using the DCA strategy it will still require a source of income before you can confidently be funding your DCA at regular intervals.
