Like they say, notting good comes easy, everything has its difficulties. I believe this is also the case for investing. Which would you consider to be the hardest part of an investment? There are some who consider the part where you need capital to invest as the hardest, while there are others who consider a situation where you spend all you have on an investment but does not provide the needed results as the hardest. For me i believe its the waiting.

I buy stocks as an investment. The hardest part for me is to decide which stocks to buy and when to buy or sell the stock on hand. This is a difficult decision when the market fluctuates a lot.
I think the hardest part of a investment is the ability to stay patient for the investment to yield. It might take years.
I agree that investing can be challenging, and everyone faces different obstacles. While needing capital is definitely tough, especially when you're just starting, I think the hardest part can also be the uncertainty—when you've put money in, and the results don't meet your expectations. The waiting, as you mentioned, can feel endless, especially when markets fluctuate. Patience and long-term thinking are essential, but it’s not always easy. Balancing risk with reward is what makes investing both exciting and stressful. What strategies do you use to handle the wait?
