It is common at the beginning of the year to think about changes in eating and exercise habits, career, or studies… but how about also reconsidering the type of investments you make? Just to try. To explore. And it doesn't even require that much money.
I want to tell you that you also have the option to take advantage of this moment and invest in options that can multiply your money. And the year looks promising.
This is a great opportunity to enter the investment market in a more comfortable way. After all, this amount of money will not compromise your monthly income or your overall assets.
Investing in technology companies carries the possibility of exponential gains, not to mention the impact on entrepreneurship and business across the country.
And if you are a salaried employee, that is no obstacle to investing. According to Dieese (Departamento Intersindical de Estatística e Estudos Socioeconômicos), the payment of the 13th salary injected 214.6 billion reais into the Brazilian economy and around 81 million Brazilians benefit from the additional salary.
Just imagine if everyone reinvested their 13th salary (or a portion of it) in businesses with great potential to impact people's lives and change Brazilian society?
One of the possibilities that makes this scenario viable is investing in startups.
You might tell me: “But I am not an investor.”
I can tell you that yes, you are an investor. If you have a savings account, you are an investor. And I bet you are among the 85% of Brazilian investors who hold one of the 62.6 million savings accounts currently active in the country.
Still, you might ask me: “But isn't this a risky investment?”
Yes, but it is important to point out to more conservative investors that the current reality of Brazilian interest rates offers a scenario absolutely different from what we had been accustomed to until now.
Our Selic rate is at its lowest point in history. For example, an investment that a few years ago yielded a rate of 1% per month now delivers less than half of that.
This new reality should be increasingly present in the life of the Brazilian investor. Therefore, if you want to achieve above-average returns, it will be necessary to rethink how we approach risk in our investments. The moment is ripe for a new investment culture and the abandonment of a more passive stance.
