Why bother making startups when I can just invest in shares&crypto and make my usual 1-2% per year? Capitalism “breeds innovation” but most startups are really just “make toilet paper a subscription” or “buy from China/USA/Germany and resell”. There are few startups based on actual scientific advancements.
Yes, I’m asking about investing while I’m broke
EDIT: 5% was an exaggeration
Everyone thinks they know better and investor money has to go somewhere for taxation purposes.
As an aside, S&P500 index is the only investment worth making for USAmericans who aren’t in congress.
