Investment is not an exact science...
<div class='text-justify'>


Hello Community, let's talk about investment, let's talk about the future, let's talk about gambling...

#
Recently I read a phrase that said something like *"Every investment is really a bet on the future"*, and first when I read it I thought "I really don't agree with what the person who wrote this article says", however later I continued reading and after finishing it, I said, wow, in reality the quality of **security** in any investment is relative, and we know that although many times the hopes usually cloud the reason a little, but, the experience hits and teaches you many times in a convincing way...

I have come to some conclusions from that reading that I did some days ago in relation to this topic of investments, I would like to share them with you and know what you think about it, of course, I will not say that I am 100% right, but at least at this moment it is part of my thoughts about it, let's start...

<div class='text-justify'>



But let's see the next concept, I share it because I thought it was quite right, and in line with what I'm proposing:

#
>*"An investment, in the economic sense, is a placement of capital for future profit. This placement is a choice that resigns an immediate benefit for a future one and, generally, unlikely."* <sub>[Source](https://definicion.de/inversion/)</sub>


The last word in that definition is **IMPROBABLE**, yes, doesn't that seem right to you?

Seeing what we do today with our money or even our time, because it's not just about investing money, spending time on something in the hope that it will give us some economic benefits later on is also an investment...

Let's say I have 50,000 dollars, and I could buy a house and even a car here in Colombia, and I say to myself, I better invest in a bakery or a pharmacy, or both, after a year or two, or a little more I could *(in theory)* live worth that. 

Of course, logic tells me that a bakery because it is a food or feed business could not fail, and even a drugstore because it sells something that is of prime necessity *(medicine)* should not fail either. So I decide to invest that money I have, that 50,000 dollars *(I wish I really had it, ha, ha, ha)* and I stop buying that house and that car I could buy...

#
But it turns out that the political conditions in my country are not the best, and an authoritarian government takes power and literally ends up appropriating many businesses with the excuse that it is for ***"the good of the nation"***, it will seem exaggerated or absurd, but I know that if it can happen, in fact in Venezuela it happened...

#### What would happen to my investment and that bet for a better future?

#
They would literally be gone. I don't mean that investing is wrong, and that it shouldn't be done, but the thing is that you always have to keep in mind that in every investment there is as much chance of winning as there is of losing, and that everything is subject to sudden changes. I think that this year has been particular in that aspect of **sudden changes - and radical ones-**.

***For my part, I will continue to bet on the future, on something that is better and generates stability for me, but knowing that in the end everything is subject to change, for better or worse, but change after all.***

#### Thank you very much for reading me.

##### I would now like to know your impression regarding what I have raised in this publication.
### Have an excellent and productive week.

The content you read is accurate, no matter how confident we are about an investment we cannot predict what will happen afterwards so we can only hope that good comes out of it.

The investments depends on where and how they are made, however friend. There will always be a 50/50 in any type of investment.
But you must be prepared to lose, but not in a negative way.

Nothing in the financial market will be an exact science and I think this is the biggest "magic" in this game.

Nice post, @josevas217.

hello @josevas217, this "giving up an immediate benefit for a future one and, in general, unlikely" made a lot of noise to me, but everything to a reality that is lived at present, because we are always subject to changes, and variables that are uncontrollable by ourselves, such is the case of what you named (that the government does its own) or a world situation lived at present, such as the pandemic.

I am definitely convinced that whoever decides to invest, has an affinity with extreme risk taking and adrenaline. At the end of the day, it is something that keeps us alert and in constant movement.

interesting publication.
