BECOMING RICH WHILE SHOPPING

That a designer bag is a good investment is something you hear every woman say at least a few times a year. “Yeah no, but this bag is only going to be worth more so I’d be crazy not to buy it.‘ Those kinds of statements are always effortlessly dismissed as ”nonsense‘ (especially by men), but HOLD ON, it’s really true.

On time.com (a serious website to prove once again that it’s really true) the following is stated: “Skip the gold and steer away from the tumbling stock market, according to a new study the best option for long-term investors is to buy a Hermès Birkin bag.” Hahaaaaa!

That ‘new study’ is research conducted by Baghunter, a website that sells (second-hand) designer bags, and the conclusion is that you’re better off buying a Birkin than gold or stocks. Over a period of 35 years, it was examined which of the three yielded the most money and the Birkin easily wins in terms of value appreciation. Now, such a little bag quietly costs a messy $50.000,- and you sometimes have to wait up to six years, but there you get pure thick fat PROFIT in return.

In short, if you ever find a large sum of money and are looking for a stable investment, take a trip to your nearest Hermès store.
