When I was 16/17 (1982/83) , I was obsessed about three things..Amazing Spiderman comics , Astronomy and computers. I figured that once computers combined word processing and accounting with the power of video game attributes (graphics and networking), that there would be one in every home. I collected spiderman comics for partly as an investment and I knew astronomy images would be a daily thing one day. 30 plus years later and spiderman is the most popular comic book ever (my collection that I spent 1000 dollars on in 1980's would be worth 50 times that now), astronomy is in the golden age and computers are everywhere. As cliche' as it may sound, when I was a teenager, I could count on one hand, the number of people I knew that shared at least one of these insights and these were all gamers. Everyone else ignored me or gave me weird looks, a few laughed at me and called me delusional. But to TBH , I was just going with my passions, and usually my passions included things that no one else around me cared about .. IDK, maybe if you are thinking about investing in the future , you should look to your kids for investment ideas.
