Imagine finding a bag with 15,000 euros in cash on a train. This is exactly what happened to a 33-year-old woman on ICE 1081 from Hanover to Munich. She discovered the bag full of 200 euro bills and handed it over to the Federal Police in Munich. The rightful owner has not yet been identified. If no one comes forward, the finder could receive a legal finder's reward of three percent, i.e. 450 euros.
What would the getquin community have done in this situation?
1. invested sensibly in an ETF, such as $IWDA (-2,18 %)
2. $4GLD (+0,04 %) safe is safe
3. all in $BTC (-2,26 %)
4. benefit from the current dip American tech companies, such as $GOOGL (-2,85 %) , $NVDA (-3,43 %) or $META (-4,66 %)
5. collect dividends just before the dividend season, such as $BATS (-3,97 %) , $ALV (-0,87 %) or $SREN (-1,18 %)
6. invest irrationally, e.g. $4X0 (-7,26 %) or $GME (-4,3 %)
7. or would you take the money to the police and fill your war chest with the finder's fee of EUR 450?
Personally, I would probably choose option 1. If the owner suddenly turned up on my doorstep, I could sell the ETF and give him the money back. There might be a little more left for me as a return than the EUR 450 I would receive from the police 😉
