When thinking about asset investment risk, people will come to the realization that Bitcoin is needed. Here’s why:
1. Investment Property: completely illiquid
2. Gold: fees will eat into your return
3. 401k/RRSP: illiquid
4. Roth/TFSA: illiquid
5. Savings Account / GICs: poor return
Bitcoin’s biggest risk is volatility. To get around this, slowly stack and the gains will eventually overcome the volatility. At the end, you will have an asset that held its purchasing power and is very liquid.
A TFSA is the next best thing in Canada, but it carries counterparty risk as you don’t hold the asset.
Gold is third on my list. It just seems like you buy and sell at such a premium.
