In this day and age, "investing" is not just for a select few

Hello, Majime-kun.

Today, rather than talking about FX alone, I'd like to talk about
"investing itself".

This is because,
in this day and age, investing is no longer
something reserved only for the wealthy or experts.

We live in an era where "saving alone" is no longer enough to protect you

I think many people have realized this over the past few years.

・Prices are rising
・Taxes and social insurance costs are increasing
・Salaries are not rising easily

In this environment,
if you ask whether "working and just saving"
will ensure a stable future, honestly, it is quite difficult.

That is why, right now,
learning to invest is starting to have a meaning closer to "self-defense for your livelihood".

This is not fear-mongering,
but a realistic discussion.

There are many types of investments

Even when we say "investing," there are many options.

・Stock investment
・Investment trusts
・Real estate
・Cryptocurrency
・FX

Each has its own characteristics,
and it is not a matter of which one is the "correct" one.

What is important is
whether it suits your capital, time, and personality.

From the perspective of small capital, FX is quite realistic

Let's take a moment here to
think from the perspective of "small capital."

Real estate
tends to require a large initial investment.

Stock investment also
requires a certain amount of capital
depending on the stock or strategy.

In that regard, FX is:

・Something you can start with a small amount
・Highly capital efficient
・Highly liquid in the world's largest market

It has these characteristics.

"Even without large capital, there are opportunities"
In that sense, I still feel that FX is something special.

Reasons why FX is suitable for beginners

FX is often thought to be difficult, but it actually has many advantages for beginners.
In fact, there are many points that are advantageous for beginners.

・You can start by selling
・The market moves almost 24 hours a day
・It is easy to establish rules
・It is easy to verify

In particular, it is well-suited for practicing
"sticking to established rules."

This is a very important element in the world of investing.
This is a quite important factor in the investment world.

The ability to think in terms of numbers and probabilities rather than acting on emotion is easily acquired through FX.

What is truly important in investing is "reproducibility"

This applies to any investment, but the most important thing is reproducibility.
This is true for any investment, but the most important thing is reproducibility.

・Got lucky
・Won just once

This is not investing.This is not investment.

・Why did you make that decision?
・Can you take the same action under the same conditions?

Whether or not you can have this perspective will greatly change your results.
The results will change significantly depending on whether you can adopt this perspective.

FX is also a field where you can learn this reproducibility relatively simply.

Precisely because the learning environment is now in place

In the past, the environment for learning about investment was quite limited.
In the past, the environment for learning about investing was quite limited.

But now,

・Books
・Videos
・Online courses
・Online schools

There are endless ways to learn.

The price ranges are broad,
varying from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of yen.

What is important is to
avoid "getting involved without learning".

Investing is a world where
you can reduce risk in proportion to what you have learned.

Conclusion

In this day and age,
knowing about investing is nothing special.

In fact,
remaining ignorant is becoming a risk in itself.

Within that context,

・It can be started with small capital
・It is easy to learn reproducibility
・It is accessible even for beginners

in that sense,
FX remains one of the viable options.

I do not think FX is for everyone.
However,
as an "entry point for learning to invest,"
I feel it is a field with sufficient value.
