yes Microstrategy. Basically leveraged Bitcoin that is giving about 3x Bitcoin returns. They correctly hold 280,000 BTC and this week announced plans to sell USD42Bn (yes with a 😎 of bonds over the next 3 years and will use that capital to buy BTC. By the time they get through that they might become the largest single holder.

Currently trading at a NAV multiple of about 3x - this may well rise as the company announces new products such as BTC loans

@Tore ********

or MSTR - if BTC does a 3x, MSTR will do a 8-10x. Or 50% SOL / 50% MSTR. Either way the THB200k will be maybe THB2m a year from today. Then maybe

can think about a share in a business

@SJ ******

the OP is turning 50, so if he’s Australian at least a decade before he can get his hands on Superannuation.

Rather than invest anything further in Australian Super I would suggest opening an account with one of the international banks with a Singapore office and enjoy your investments growing 100% tax free - way better than either Super or any retail investments in Thailand.

The rest of the recommendations are entirely discretionary

@Andy ***********

seems you have it covered, however you pay land tax and will be building up a capital gains liability (unless you are registered as a tax resident and get a CGT exemption on your principal residence).

Australia is kinda unique with its negative gearing tax regime and therefore (mostly residential) real estate obsession.

The vast majority of retirees hold their funds in tax paying jurisdictions and give zero thought to more efficient strategies - where allowed what I am suggesting makes far more sense.

@Andy ***********

I suggest a much better strategy is to invest your hard earned capital in a tax free jurisdiction such as Singapore, get an LTR visa and pay no tax to anyone

@Andy ***********

Several of the LTR visas grant tax free overseas income for 10 years - does the DTV offer that ?

Consider a plug in hybrid such as the Mitsubishi Outlander, BYD Sealion or Haval H6. All will save you a ton of fuel money over the life of the vehicle ( even more if you can add solar to your home).

And really smooth & fun to drive

@Steve *******

have you noticed that the value of hard assets (real estate, gold, shares) keeps rising very fast, yet wages are hardly changing ?

This is because most central banks around the world are printing money in huge volumes - this is known as currency debasement. A dollar from 2014 is worth less than 30 cents in real terms today, due to currency debasement and inflation.

Bitcoin is another hard asset, rapidly being adopted by banks, pension funds, corporations and individuals as a store of wealth with finite supply. Huge demand + limited supply = (you figure it out)…

@Angelo **********

I doubt he’s asking about visas 6 years in advance, but either of us could be right. Peace and love

@Steve *******

a little old but you can get the idea
