Crypto What?!!

Just kidding.  I know what cryptocurrency is because I was married to someone who was a heavyweight in the investment field.  He loved investing and taking risks.  Sometimes there were wins and at other times he took a hit but he used to say that it was part of taking a risk and I agree.  That is why I love safe bets!

However, if truth be told, there is always a risk factor involved in investments and unfortunately that is the truth and with some investments more so than others.

Coming back to cryptocurrency.  What is it?  It is defined as a “digital form of money that exists only online and has no physical coins or paper bills.” Sounds daunting?  It is to me.  You store your crypto in a software program called a digital wallet.  Here is the thing, cryptocurrency is considered an investment asset but a high-risk one and if your portfolio size is a big one, go for it.

I’d rather stick with less risky investments.  I have two but I won’t go into them here.  The two have grown in worth but it took years and I consider them to be safe bets.  Crypto?  It is for people like my ex who don’t mind losing and ones who get an adrenalin rush when they get wins.  

I breathe easy with mine and that matters.
