ETF for FIRE
Hey, Fireheads! Guillem and I are still in the trenches, but things are already happening here and there. If you visit the new Deltabadger website, you will see how dollar-cost averaging into different asset classes for the last 4-years worked (It's updated daily): - Unsurprisingly, Bitcoin beats everything, including Ethereum (more than 2X!). - However, another less understood fact: NASDAQ-100 beats S&P500 โ€” here are my thoughts: 1. Even if you buy some broader market ETFs, most of their growth is delivered by huge companies from the top. It's true for any broad market fund. 2. Nasdaq-100 (ETFs like QQQ track) is more focused on the "top," and the tech sector since NASDAQ is more tech-oriented than NYSE. 3. I firmly believe that the 100 biggest companies are enough diversification, and you don't sacrifice anything by focusing on the biggest winners. 4. I argue that those biggest companies will capture an even more significant part of the market in the coming decade. Why? Because they deliver tools without which no other business is possible: AI and robots. I don't see a scenario where "small-caps" are growing, but Microsoft is struggling because a small business cannot operate without AI, and smaller companies cannot do AI well. What does it mean for you? Complement or replace the S&P 500 with the NASDAQ 100. Many already know QQQ, but few are aware of an even cheaper alternative, QQQM, that, thanks to a lower expense ratio (0.15% vs. 0.2%), is even a better choice for long-term investors. In the last decade, the NASDAQ-100 has grown, on average, 19% a year. This is significantly better than the S&P 500, and if you wonder what it means for you long-term, try our Coast FIRE Calculator. While not everybody is comfortable with holding a lot of Bitcoin โ€” QQQM may be your next best bet in the long-term portfolio, and at the same time, it's not advice you hear very often. I believe that with high probability, it will become common sense in the next decade.

Thanks for the interesting post Jan! Since I have part of my portfolio in P2P loans, I always like to read the publications of the platforms. Robocash recently published an article that goes in a similar direction (only n relation to crypto). Quote: โ€œIn the coming year, cryptocurrency and P2P investments together claim to occupy a major share of the optimal investment portfolio. A strategy focusing on these alternative instruments can bring an investor a real return of up to 43%.โ€ The proposed portfolio consists of 50 percent crypto. The rest is divided between P2P, bonds, fixed-term deposits, precious metals, ... Link to the Robocash article

Hi Jan, unfortunately I don't have any good articles on the subject of risk and P2P loans. Success as an investor depends on the choice of lenders or multi-lender platforms. Personally, I rely on platforms with a long track record. I have linked the website on the topic of risk from get income here. Here the various risks are once again well presented and explained how the platform reduces them. However, not every platform is as exemplary as income ...

Hi, I'm Anton and I'm from Germany. I like to spend my free time traveling with my family. Apart from the topic of finance (stocks ETF's, bonds, P2P loans, a little bit of crypto) I am interested in healthy nutrition. Hence my book tip: Eat for Life by Dr. Joel Fuhrman.
