3 years ago I encouraged my family to allocate 10% of our investment trust into Bitcoin
Thankfully they agreed
It’s up 450%
And is now 30% of the portfolio
The bulk of the capital is in tradfi allocations
One of our money managers told us at the time that you couldn’t beat inflation
His recommendation was to buy a tax exempt uk government bond with a “net yield” of 7%
Interestingly, instead of seeing the power of Bitcoin to outpace inflation and protect family wealth
Now they’re coming for the position to “take profit”, “de-risk”, and “re
-balance”
You can guess what my opinion is
NO….
We beat inflation
You said we couldn’t
We proved that you could
And now you want diworsification
Problem is, family members are lured in by their “regulated family wealth adviser” chat
Some tricky conversations ahead
