On the 21st (local time) in the United States, a person living in Maryland won the 1st place in the powerball, a representative lottery in the United States, and received a cumulative prize amount of $731.1 million. This is a case of sharing an annuity type for 29 years, and it will be reduced to 546.8 million dollars (about 603 billion won) when received as a lump sum payment.
Jim Kramer, who was active as a fund manager at Goldman Sachs on Wall Street, and now a stock investment expert and host of the CNBC broadcaster, an economic channel, mentioned this lucky winner in his’mad money’ on the 23rd. I would like to say that those who have won in will only need to invest 5% in Bitcoin.”
On this day, bitcoin fell 13% per day, and Kramer also advised, “If you are buying bitcoin, don’t buy it all at once, don’t buy it on the weekend,” he pointed out that “virtual assets including bitcoin are bound to be highly volatile.
In previous broadcasts, he pointed out not only the high volatility close to the fickleness of Bitcoin, but also the problem of abuse due to anonymity. Nevertheless, he said, “Bitcoin is certainly an important and new means of storing value.”
“If you’re already wealthy, you have to worry about inflation just like Superman is concerned about kryptonite,” said Kramer. If it is, inflation can become an issue soon.”
Accordingly, Kramer emphasized that while investing mainly in traditional financial assets such as stocks and bonds, at the same time, it is necessary to hedge the risk of inflation by investing in real assets such as gold, real estate, art, and bitcoin.
