**This Investor Made a Profit of Rp750 Billion After Buying Bitcoin for Retirement Funds**
An anonymous investor revealed that he bought 500 Bitcoins worth US$50,000 in 2013, when the digital asset was still little known and not highly valued.
In fact, the 42-year-old investor took a more extreme step by saving those coins for retirement funds. He realized that this was risky, but he felt young and had a steady job, so he could still recover if he lost money.
Nonetheless, he believes this is a wise move. Because, people his age spend money on houses, children, or expensive weddings without gaining financial benefits, which he considers unprofitable in old age.
“I also think about how most people will spend their entire lives without taking risks and trying new things. When I am older, I won’t be able to do things like this,” said the investor.
Sweet fruits, the coins that were initially low in value have risen to US$45 million or around Rp750.6 billion.
