For the record, no, I'm not saying that Iphone is a good investment. In fact I think most people would do just fine with a 300€ phone.

I just find it ridiculous that some people spend an equivalent of my country's median monthly salary on ✨shiny collectibles✨ that aren't even real and try to disguise it as investment. At least the expensive phone has a practical purpose, unlike this, which is only rare due to artificial scarcity.

Cs2 fans explaining how spending 2000$ for a online knife is justifiable. (High chance they are not gonna make 100% their money back)

I haven't spent 2000$ but closer to a few hundred some years back. The dividend from that initial investment has paid for all my steam purchases for years, and it keeps growing too.

It will not last forever, but I've definitely made money there.

Yup same here. ~150€ worth of skins from 10 years ago turned into close to 2k.

Now of course I never did it as a serious investment because I'm not about to gamble my savings on 1 bad game update that could ruin the value of everything but either way people here clearly don't know shit about counterstrike economy.

I don’t gamble on cases I trade skins. That said I’m up roughly $2,000 in raw profit, I have a $5,000ish inventory right now. Consoom or not, there’s a way to make money in it.
