Why do you think most people don't make investments

[Stardom22]

Most people see investments as a waste of money. However investment is very important as it aids the process of saving.
Unfortunately most people don't embrace on investing. What do you think is the reason behind this.

 

[Starmix]

I think they are afraid or not capable to invest. They are not used to it. Or, they lack capital or skills. There might be many reasons why do not invest their money.

 

[Springtime]

I think some people may not like to take risk or do not have the capital to make investments.

 

[Starmix]

That's correct why take the risks? I won't also take risks about investments that do not have appeal to me. We have to ask ourselves if passionate about a certain investment.

I think there are several factors such as the risk involved in putting your capital in the market and another may be due to a lack of knowledge.

 

[Starmix]

Knowledge is power and through it we will be safe and secured. It's not good to gamble. Better be safe than sorry.

 

[redcentaur]

Not all investment are profitable, Both online and physical assets.

One has to do a proper research before venturing into a new business structure, my 2cents.

Exactly, investments have nothing to do with betting, it's better to keep money than to lose it because of nonsense, it's better to investigate everything you can and make sure that you are investing correctly so that your money does not disappear.

Yes agree, it's better to think wisely than invest without thinking. Regret is always at the end.

Because of the lacks of information they get, people who investing their money are the people who got the knowledge, i wish i knew how to invest my money long time ago but its better late than never. Just make sure we got the best info and knowledge about it and eager to learn everyday

 

[Pousinha]

My former country is a land of great savers, so a lot of people do invest (whether in cryptocurrencies, whether in properties, as bank investments don't give true interests but crumbs since decades). Who doesn't invest is usually poor or too poor so lacks resources to spend for whatever profitable investment. In my current country, it's more complicated. First of all, lack of knowledge is the main reason. Then the spendthrift culture is a terrible hindrance. Unfortunately, here easily happens as soon as some money enters into a house, it goes immediately, a lot of times in futilities. It's a cultural peculiarity.

Your former country? Which country youre talking about? Yes the lack of knowledge always the main reason why they dont do investments. When they get the knowledge and the money, they will do it and i hope they continue learning and always up to date with the current issues and situation

 

[Reedex]

I would rather say that people are afraid to lose their money, that is why they never wanted to invest.

Life is always have a risk, just research more and after know it, i'm sure they will ready to invest, theres nothing like "low rish hight return", if we want high return we should realize there is high risk too.

 

[Edulady]

two factors contribute to this, fear and lack of knowledge. These two factors can hold you back in life, they can really derail you from reaching your dreams. If we just live to save our money then it will take a long time if not never for you to reach your dreams and goals.

 

[uptrendfinancialsignal]

You will see investment as a waste of time if you do not understand the intricacies of investment.

 

[Carson20t]

Whether we like it or not we need to invest, but developing that culture to think an investment is what makes us have challenges in most cases because there is always a reason to spend because of the high cost of living and our desire for needs and wants in our individual lives and lives of our families. So to have that level of discipline requires one to be intentional about it.

 

[Magnus2022]

Everybody knows the benefit of investment but the problem that makes people not to invest is lack of money. When somebody don't have enough to survive and sustain, he will not save.
