How to invest thinking about the future?
It is what you should ask to define what to do with your money.
Innovation and the need to take risks.
The future is here.
The problem is that it is so badly distributed that some do not stop innovating and others have excess past.
Think for a moment that Ten years ago there was no WhatsApp. Neither Twitter nor Facebook were used as mass communication systems. Instagram had not been thought about.
A decade ago, Netflix was a curiosity and today is the Uber of the media. Future rich countries think what does not exist today and will be necessary in
ten years.
The eternal poor countries think they conspire against us. But I do not want in this note to regret it, but to analyze some investment alternatives thinking about the future.
Because right now?
I think it’s time, because when they shake the tree they give you the opportunity to grab fruits more easily. Thus investments should be thought.
As a friend says: «Buy when that investment or trace hurts.» They are the moments when you win.
When things are already obvious and safe, they have no rent, precisely because they have low risk.
Why risk?
Being very conservative makes you last.
For those who have a lot of money is a logical option. But for whom he has little, being conservative is to maintain his condition.
Therefore, he who has little or skilled to continue growing, has the obligation to risk to change his current situation.
As you do not have to lose, the most important thing is to know when to risk. He who has little has the obligation to risk to change his current situation.
And he who already has a lot can risk something faster. The great Paula Pareto (Olympic Gold Medallace) said:
«One of my coaches says that the one who has the most desire to win and the least fear of losing wins.»
Some advices.
Lose the fear. As the writer Sigmund Baumann said, 95% of the things we are very afraid of end up not happening and that ends up costing a lot of money.
The best example is the famous «2000 effect» with computers. The Y2K, the avian flu epidemic or flu A or the end of the world in 2012.
The northern world lives threatened and in permanent wars conflicts (worse of situations) or in financial crises, etc. In Argentina we also do not escape part of the globalization or periodic political crises, but and the yellow vests of Paris, or the Catalans in Spain,
or the Brexit in Great Britain or Greece or Turkey …. or .. do those countries be paralyzed by fear? or are they adapting to new challenges?
The world does not stop turning.
The citizens of the wealthy world will spend more and more money on entertainment, vacations in natural places away from large cities and look younger and healthier.
Where to invest?:
For me, Argentina is an option. Because they shook the tree very strong and were easy to lift, undervalued and with more value potential.
I know it is a huge risk, due to our fragile currency, for our country risk, for our high social conflict. But, as I justified before, good investments arise from bad times. When everyone wants to sell, it is easier to buy.
In what area?:
I close the note with the beginning. Let’s think ten years.
For me the citizens of the wealthy world will spend more and more money on entertainment, Holidays in places of pure nature away from big cities and also in wears younger and healthier.
…. It is worth introducing a 10 -year vision of the world’s tourism development of the citizens of the rich countries, for which I copy part of a journalistic article published days in Infobae that accredits it: Argentina was invited to honor in the Mediterranean Tourism Stock Exchange in Napoles, Italy where our Minister of Tourism of the Nation (of former President Mauricio Macri) Gustavo Santos explained his vision of the future, where ecotourism, connectivity and digital dissemination will play A key role. Among
other concepts he said:
«…. Tourism is one of the productive industries that will grow the most in the next 10 years and therefore we will generate the conditions to participate in that growth ……»
…… We will double the number of national parks, adding Mar Chiquita and Traslasierra among others ….
That will give all these regions a huge potential for high -end tourism …… «… you have to think about accommodations that respect the natural environment
and promote local roots » … The eco-tourism proposal is a world boom that is increasingly demanded.
Eco Domos, green hotels and lodgings without environmental impact are part of the item that will expand the most within this global growth. »
Already over-communicated, citizens will seek to prolong how their well-being standard can.
How and where do I?
Acquiring hotel and accommodation properties positioned and rooted in tourist places and in privileged locations mainly with natural environments and basic infrastructures of gastronomy, excursions, free interconnectivity, transport.
I suggest the city of Villa de Merlo, province of San Luis, third microclima in the world and located in the center of Argentina, with free interconnectivity of Wi Fi in its entire territory, recognized worldwide for its third microclimate in the world, it has an important infrastructure in transport, (international airport), gastronomy, wild excursions, amusements, etc.
This may be the principle of departure for the reception of wealthy citizens throughout the first world and get ahead of the future that is around the corner.
