A Word From Our SponsorsWhere to Invest $100,000 Right Now According to Bloomberg Experts Today, investors like you and me face a dilemma. The global pandemic is disrupting markets, making promising investments even harder to find. Bloomberg asked investment experts where they’d personally place $100,000 right now. They overwhelmingly recommended alternative assets like art. After all, the ultra-wealthy have placed their bets on art for centuries. Peggy and David Rockefeller’s art collection sold for a record $835.1M—the most ever at auction. Today, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, and Eric Schmidt are all active art collectors. In fact, 66% of billionaire collectors allocate 10–30% of their portfolios to art. And, the total wealth held in art is set to explode by another $1 trillion by 2026. Now you can allocate to this exciting asset class with Masterworks.io, the first company to securitize iconic works by artists like Monet, Banksy, and Basquiat. I partnered with them to let you get priority access to their in-demand offerings. Diff subscribers skip their waitlist* *See important disclaimers You’re on the free list for The Diff.
