We recently talked about our failed investments, so today on a beautiful sunny Sunday we can talk about something more positive, so I'll pose the question to the best ones. What have you done well in investing beyond your expectations? I'd love to read your stories, plus I'm curious about @milanvican and his best investment. :)
My personal project that I have been working on since high school, when I turned an old farmhouse into a guesthouse.
Furthermore, mostly successes in trading, where for example in forex I regularly make around 10% monthly capital gains, which is great for me personally.
I'm gonna move away from stocks and say my best investment. It was cosmetic modifications (skins) to the game CS:GO. I started actively playing CS:GO in 2016 and from the beginning I was fascinated by the skins market, which is quite popular in that game.
Since that year, I've been buying items quite extensively, which were limited in quantity and to date I still keep them. The unrealized appreciation on many of them is already over +1000%. I'll probably pour it all into equities soon, they make more sense to me nowadays, although there's still quite a bit of money to be made on these skins.
Oh, and in the stock world, it was $META-3.2% +147%.
