Gaby Rosenberg, 25, told us last year how she discovered the fixed income market and, having had a few years’ work experience with tech start-ups, decided toSince then, the Blossom app has attracted more than $15 million from young, mostly female investors who share Rosenberg’s vision about investing without being exposed to the riskier parts of the market.

“I’ve been investing for about two years and have built a modest nest egg,” she says. “About 70 per cent of my portfolio is in fixed income, 10 per cent in cash, 10 per cent in Australian bank stocks and 10 per cent in US stocks with a focus on big data, artificial intelligence and technology.“ Like many young investors, Rosenberg’s goal is to use her portfolio gains to buy an investment property.

1/ This is a terrible investment strategy in the current climate. Bonds have been providing negative yields over recent years and with inflation at record highs, this is a sure fire recipe for losing money in real terms

Is this satire

Bonds?!?! Hahahahaha

Read the PDS 😳😬🤨 ' inflation hedges, overlays, arbitrage strategies...'

Wow, read the PDS. Leveraged, very complex derivatives, positions managed actively involving arbitrage, shorts, synthetics etc. One bad trade and result in losses for the investor. And this is packaged as Fixed Income? For Gen MZ retail? asicmedia

Gaby prefers losing 6% a year instead of 40% on crypto.

Wow sadly that is a losing investment

She should buy shiba inu

Maybe running an agressive carry and roll…. Or punting bond futures….

Breaking: 25 year old decides she will buy a house when she is 250. She is 25, just buy an ETF.

A 25 year old should not be investing in bonds. Fixed income is for people at the tail end of their lives when they are more interested in wealth preservation rather than wealth creation. You are young...take on a bit more risk. Can currently get high teens in the sharemarket.

Shoot for the moon…. 🥱
