It’s Wealth Wednesday, and today we’re demystifying a powerful and beginner-friendly investing strategy: Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA).
What is DCA? It’s the simple practice of investing a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, regardless of the asset’s price. For example, you might decide to buy $100 of Bitcoin every Friday.
Why is this so powerful?
• It removes emotion from investing. You’re not trying to “time the market,” which is nearly impossible.
• It reduces risk. By buying at regular intervals, you average out your purchase price over time.
• It’s consistent. It turns investing into a habit, which is the key to long-term wealth.
Question of the day: Have you ever used Dollar-Cost Averaging in your investing (for crypto or stocks)? What has been your experience?
