Mark Moss breaks down how people preserve wealth across equities, real estate, fixed-income assets, and cash reserves. He notes Bitcoin is now competing with gold as a store of value, challenging the traditional hierarchy of wealth preservation tools.
Where do we try to preserve our capital across time? Well, we put it into equities, we put it into stocks, right? We put it into stocks and equities and hopefully that it doesn't melt like an ice cube in, like, in dollars and it grows over time. I'm trying to preserve and grow that wealth over time. We put it into real estate. Certainly we live in real estate, but then we invest into real estate and commercial real estate, apartments, duplexes, all of those types of things. And so we're also using real estate to preserve and grow that wealth. Fixed income. So I don't want to spend down my capital, but I do need income to live so I can put my money, my capital into assets that can pay me over time. So that's fixed income money, of course. So we, we do save money, right? We keep our operating expenses, buffer accounts. We spend that. So Bitcoin's competing there, competing against gold.
