Attention!
For those interested in long-term investments, I now wholeheartedly recommend Bitcoin as the primary option to consider.
However, it’s essential to educate yourself about this digital asset before diving in, as it can take time to fully grasp its intricacies and potential.
A fantastic starting point is the book “The Bitcoin Standard” (Amazon), which provides an in-depth look at the history, principles, and technology behind Bitcoin.
Once you’re ready to invest, most major exchanges offer similar fees and services, so choose one that best suits your needs. Personally, I use Crypto.com.
It’s crucial to transfer your Bitcoin to a secure wallet once you’ve made your purchase, as leaving it on an exchange can pose risks.
To truly make the most of your investment in Bitcoin, take the time to study and understand its workings. Your financial journey will benefit from a well-informed approach.
I wish you the best in your endeavors.
Sincerely
Michael J. Peterson

Rating Methodology
How Do We Rate Robo Advisors?
We have spent months of research looking for the best robo-advisors. Our ratings are based on:
- Investment selection – We rate robo-advisors based on the selection and complexity of their investment options. We look for broad selection and unique options, including socially- responsible investment options.
- Costs, Fees & Hidden Fees – No one should have ‘surprise fees.’ We uncover all fees and only suggest the robo-advisors that don’t charge excessive fees beyond the initial management fee.
- Support – We all need support now and then, even with an automated system. We look for robo-advisors that offer phone and in-person support.
- User Experience – Robo-advisors rely on user experience. If they aren’t user-friendly, you won’t get the most out of your investments or enjoy the advantage of hands-off investing.
- Additional features – Robo-investing has many different looks. We choose those that have additional features that investors may enjoy.
