Most people have the misconception that just saving and investing in bitcoins can make them rich one day, and they don't need to work hard anymore. To me, investing is just a way to help us deal with inflation and preserve assets, but not enough to help us become rich. If we want to be rich, increasing our income is the best way to become rich sustainably.
I agree with you. Basically investment is not to get rich but as a place to store the value of your money. Paper currency experiences inflation almost every year. That means if this year your money is worth $ 1,000 and is equivalent to about 15 grams of gold then next year maybe your $ 1,000 will only be worth 10 grams of gold. Paper currency is not pegged to gold. Since then inflation has become increasingly unstoppable because the country can print money freely and only based on trust. Some people might say that the country is very careful in printing money. But honestly I doubt they are really very careful. And talking about investment you might be able to get rich but that happens because the value of your investment instrument increases. If you want to be rich then you have to do business and make money aka take money from the market to your pocket.
