“Very cutesy,” “very demure”— these are the words that broke the internet and became a part of everyone’s vocabulary. Even those who don’t know what they mean or where they came from find themselves saying them.
“Cutesy” and “demure” suddenly became an internet sensation overnight because someone used them so frequently and effectively, I might add. The traffic generated by the creator’s videos has probably earned her a considerable amount of money—well, if she’s well-positioned and verified to receive it, demurely, of course.
You’re probably wondering where this is going. Well, this is me telling you about leaving a legacy; a footprint in the sands of time and in all parts of life, especially in your finances. The internet never forgets, and the “cutesy and demure” woman has that to her advantage. If this trend resurfaces years later, she stands to make even more money.
Do you understand? I’d like to think so!
Now, let’s explore a few investments that are revolutionary and will continue to pave the way for future generations.
- Warren Buffett’s Investment in Coca-Cola:
Let me take you on a journey to 1987, when the stock market crash adversely affected a lot of companies, sending them into a serious downward spiral. As usual, it was a day of losses for some and gains for others. At this time, stocks declined rapidly, so it would seem foolish for someone to invest over 1 billion dollars into a company stock, right?
Well, guess what? That’s exactly what Warren Buffett did. The investment mogul invested about 1.3 billion dollars into Coca-Cola, and he did this because he saw the value (note that he didn’t do it blindly). A lot of people questioned whether he had lost his touch and didn’t do his calculations well.
To prove it wasn’t an accident, he went ahead and bought more of the shares. Well, Coca-Cola is still standing and raking in billions of dollars per year, or even per month, for its investors. So, it’s safe to say it wasn’t a foolish decision after all. If that’s not a “cutesy” investment, I wonder what is?
- SoftBank’s Investment in Alibaba
SoftBank Group Corp. is a Japanese multinational investment holding company headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, focusing on investment management. They invest in technology companies that offer goods and services to customers in a multitude of markets and industries, ranging from the internet to automation. So yeah, typical giant—you know the drill.
They invested in Alibaba, the now-popular Chinese multinational technology company specializing in e-commerce and retail, when it was still a startup in the year 2000. Their initial investment was 20 million dollars, and by 2014, when Alibaba was becoming a public company, the investment had risen to over 60 billion dollars. Almost without competition, this investment is one of the most profitable in tech history. SoftBank’s founder, Masayoshi Son, recognized Alibaba’s potential early, and boy oh boy, they’ve reaped more than their labor.
- Early Investment in Bitcoin
The way everyone is talking about Bitcoin and how much it’s worth, you wouldn’t realize that there was a time when someone bought two pizzas for 10,000 bitcoins, which are worth billions right now. I hope the person who got paid back then held on to at least some of it.
From 2009 to 2011, Bitcoin was launched, initially costing less than 1 dollar per bitcoin, and it steadily grew in price. In 2021, it peaked at over 60,000 dollars per bitcoin. Some people who managed to see the potential in the coin and had the patience to hold on saw astronomical returns, with some turning small investments into millions or even billions of dollars.
Not only that, Bitcoin’s rise sparked the broader cryptocurrency revolution, paving the way for other cryptocurrencies to thrive in the space.
