I’ve saved some money during my whole life, and I’d like to invest it. I’ve come to the conclusion that the safest method is investing in ETFs (specifically, NASDAQ and S&P 500). You won’t get rich in a month, but it grows with the time.
I would also like to invest some money in Bitcoin (about $500) and stocks of some big companies (as they might grow faster, and I could get a little more money), but not too much because it’s quite risky.
If most of my money goes to ETFs, is there still a big risk?
And don’t tell me, ‘If you can’t lose your money, don’t invest’. It doesn’t help me with anything.
Edit: wow, this has blown up! I was not expecting that. Anyway, I’d like to clarify something: of course, the chances of it decreasing to zero are low. However, my main concern is losing money, not necessarily losing ALL of my money. I don’t wanna lose even 10% (at least, not in the long run).
Hence, I shall rephrase the question – ‘what are the chances of losing an (big) amount of my saving?’
