💥 Plus: ETF Strategy for Inflation-Proof Growth: QQQ, Gold, Bitcoin — Simple & Powerful
Hello from Dubai ;-)
💥 The Lazy Investor’s Inflation Shield: QQQ, Gold & Bitcoin
Perfect for busy investors. Powerful against inflation.
Let’s be honest — central banks and governments are printing like there’s no tomorrow. If you're not invested, inflation will run you over. And not just in groceries or rent — I'm talking about asset inflation.
My core belief:
Money printing = asset inflation.
The US economy will survive — but cash won’t.
That’s why I built this ETF strategy — perfect for younger investors, busy professionals, or anyone who wants a low-maintenance, high-resilience portfolio.
🚀 My “No Time at All” ETF Strategy
🔒 Asset Allocation:
45% QQQ (Nasdaq 100 – US Tech Leaders)
45% GLD (Gold ETF – Inflation & Volatility Hedge)
10% GBTC (Bitcoin ETF – Optionality Against Monetary Regimes)
This gives you:
Growth from U.S. innovation
Protection from monetary debasement
A wildcard hedge in Bitcoin
🧠 Why this works
This mix taps into three megatrends:
Tech eats the world → QQQ
Fiat debasement continues → Gold
Anti-fragile exposure → Bitcoin
It’s like having:
A Ferrari for growth (QQQ)
A tank for chaos (Gold)
And a lottery ticket (Bitcoin)
And the best part? You can automate this with any broker or even use apps like M1 Finance to rebalance passively.

45% QQQs

10% Bitcoin ETF (GBTC)
Weekly rebalance (if you want to tame volatility):
Yearly Rebalance —> more volatility
See the difference?
🧠 So What’s the Play?
If you're young or bold:
🟢 Go Yearly Rebalance — ride the upside.If you want smoother returns:
🟢 Choose Weekly Rebalance — tames volatility.
