Investment is a term that is often associated with financial markets and stock portfolios, but is it true that money is the only thing one can invest in? Many would argue that time, energy, and education are all valuable investments that can yield long-term rewards.

Can you think of any other forms of investment that are just as important, if not more so, than monetary investments?

What do you believe, is it only money that one can invest or are there other forms of investment that are just as valuable?

Absolutely no! You can invest in yourself by reading self help books, going for special training, acquiring relevant skills etc. Acquring knowledge is investment in one's life.

Investment is something that when many people hear it, they instantly think of money and that is because most investing does involve money so it is easy for you to be able to associate it with that right away when you hear it.

Other ways you can invest are also time into your work and also you can invest in yourself, learning new things, and gaining new skills. Any new stuff you learn or new skills you learn are all good investments that may one day help you to become more financially stable in the future.

Sometimes the best investment doesn't always cost money :)

You can invest in yourself by self learning or studying a course to improve your skills. You can also invest in fine wines, luxury watches, paintings, old coins. These items may appreciate in value over time.

You can invest in skills but anything you invest on rallies around making money at the end of the day. Even if it is a skill that you invest on , you are gaining the skills to make better income.

There are lots of things that people invest in which may not necessarily have to be money but it is important to consider an investment before trying it out and Investment in skill is also a viable way to invest.

There are lot of investment that's does not involved investing in a sort of business but it could be investing in human resources which is probably one of the best ways to invest because when you gain enough experience, you will tend to make more money most especially online.

That's cleverly worded because investment could be done in terms of energy and time and that is another form which people can invest in order to make money on the internet . For example , investment in time and energy on paid to post forum.

Money is not the only thing you can invest. I am pretty sure you have other things to attend to but you are here on this forum, you might have not invested any money in this forum to earn back, but you are investing your time. Your time is another valuable investment as well.

You can also invest time and energy. In fact, you can make more money by investing time and energy instead of money. People who invested time and energy to build youtube made a lot of money by selling it to Google.

Money is not the only thing that some could invest in it but in my opinion the best investment is on yourself, joining trainings, buying courses and buying books are all investments.

It is not only money that is being invested. There are a lot of things you can invest apart from money. But I believe in every other kind of investment money must be involved.

it is still money that will make you or help you to invest in yourself properly. If you want to buy courses or materials that will help to develop your personality you need money to do so.

I was about to say that education is the best form of investment which is true but there is no doubt that we need money to sponsor our education.
