I quit my job and started travelling. After finding out that I was much smarter than most of the people who travel around all their life and who got rich by investing, I started to read upon it. I decided that I put split all my net worth between an apartment, gold and Bitcoin. It was incomparably by far the most productive day of my life.

Agree on the first part, but what was so smart about the apartment/gold/BTC combo? Just good timing on all? Or was it more thought out than just good timing?

It's more like before I was thinking of promotions as a way to move up the job ladder and making more money, but my view changed to spending the minimal amount of time working, not caring about promotions (which get you extra 15% money with a lot of problems and more than 15% extra work), but getting out of fiat currencies.

I don't think my investments were pure luck as I read a lot about the long term pricing of commodities. Right now my net worth is mainly Bitcoin (I still believe it's highly undervalued), and I didn't change it, but I didn't want to sound like an average Bitcoin promoter, as that's not what I wanted this comment to be about.

Also I quit my job as I don't need to work anymore in my life (that's why I made this account as a throwaway)
