I got your point. But there is always a good time to enter in the market. It's a thread created for discussion only. What i had to say is that even if you have money to invest, rather don't invest it now. You are telling to invest it when the commodity prices are already high? I prefer to buy at bottom out position. That is the best time to enter in the business.
Unfortunately you are not being specific, what commodity prices are you talking about, crypto? but then if you believe that getting in on the bottoms is a good idea then there is no better time to buy crypto since the recent crash, all prices sank super low so it's the best time to get in right now. BTC went -50% today from it's all time high, not sure of a better time to get in. Today you could have bought BTC at $29000 oh and look it's back up to $38000 so if you had capital to buy just 1 Bitcoin today you could have made $9000 profit in less than 24 hours.
Besides that, there are other opportunities that are not dependent on entering markets at it's lows or at any stage. Like AI Marketing for example, online sales are not going away anytime soon and are just growing like crazy, especially since covid, do you agree? So investing in a sophisticated AI bot that works 24/7 and sells credible company products online (like Nike, Lenovo, Microsoft, even Dominos Pizza) using Adsense, is that not a good investment in your opinion?
Investing in Lego sets that become rare or discontinued is also a great investment idea.
You can buy certain limited Lego sets now that will be worth double or triple by next year.
Some of them don't even cost a lot, you can spend $100 on a specific set, not just some random set. By next year you can sell it for $200 on eBay or more.
I could even tell you now which sets to buy and in 12 months they will be worth double or more.
You can do this with any rare collectibles like comic books, trading cards and now NFTs.
A guy who bought a crypto punk NFT for $30 000 sold it for $40 000 the same day because of the hype for these particular NFTs. Sure not everyone has that kind of capital to drop but it's the concept you can learn from.
Investing is how rich people grow their wealth and they do it when the economy is suffering or thriving, in fact they make more money during a crisis because they understand opportunity.
If you struggling financially now and you don't do something DIFFERENT (and by that I don't mean dive into a random project without doing any research, I mean take your time at making a educated decision, then stick to it and follow through to get the results, not just give up halfway) because next year... at this rate next month you will have less value for your money. So you need to take a small portion of what you currently have and plan a tree for the future :)
Don't eat all the seeds, plant some of the seeds <3
