This kid's vision is indeed unique. While his peers are still figuring out how to spend their New Year’s money, he has already set his sights on gold and digital assets. This level of awareness is rare.

Rather than letting money depreciate in his pocket, it's better to help him develop correct financial habits at a young age—allocating physical assets like gold and BTC, as well as cryptocurrencies, inherently reflects an understanding of asset preservation and appreciation. Making profits or losses is secondary; the key is that he understands the essence of money and wealth at this age.

This potential and awareness are worth encouraging. Proper guidance—teaching him about cycles, risks, and long-term value investing—is more important than anything else.

Honestly, kids start thinking about allocating BTC and gold from their New Year's money, and this awareness is truly top-notch. Compared to those who get rich overnight, understanding the logic of asset preservation at this age is the real winning mindset in the long run.

Wow, really? Even kids are starting to allocate BTC. When I was saving my New Year’s money, I was still thinking about what snacks to buy. --- This awareness is indeed impressive, much stronger than when I first got into crypto in my twenties, but it depends on how the family guides them. --- The key is not to get wrecked. The cycle is easy to talk about but hard to do. Even adults can't hold onto it. --- Honestly, being in elementary school has its pros and cons. I hope they’re truly thinking about it rather than just following the trend. --- The combination of gold and BTC as a mindset is pretty good; at least it’s not putting all your eggs in one basket. --- This kid’s parents must also be knowledgeable; otherwise, how would they think of digital assets? Most parents are still advising their kids to save in fixed deposits. --- At such a young age, understanding preservation and appreciation of value is better than anything else. The rest depends on execution. --- I just want to know if their family has already made a profit, and now they’re starting to bring the kid into the game haha.

The child's awareness is truly exceptional, much smarter than I was at his age. Back then, I was still debating whether to buy figurines or trading cards. Getting exposed to cryptocurrencies and precious metals early on will give him a head start over his peers when he grows up. That’s true financial enlightenment. But on the other hand, he needs a responsible adult to guide him; otherwise, it’s easy to fall into traps... --- This kid is quite interesting. At such a young age, he’s already thinking about asset allocation, more clear-headed than most adults. --- Exactly, leaving money to depreciate is not as good as investing in BTC, gold, and such. The key is to develop this kind of thinking habit. --- Honestly, kids nowadays understand so much more than our generation. If he can stick to this mindset, he’s definitely a winner. --- The only concern is that parents might not guide him properly, and instead lead him into pitfalls. There are too many investment traps these days. --- It’s definitely encouraging, but he should be taught not to go all-in on any single asset. Diversification is the right way. --- Haha, while peers are still spending their New Year’s money on snacks, he’s already building an asset portfolio. His perspective is different.

Haha, I didn't expect kids to play with BTC... This awareness really beat my peers of the same age. Don't just encourage him, you need to teach him to accept losses. Real money lessons are more effective than anything else. These days, kids who understand asset allocation are actually rare; most are still playing with blind boxes. By the way, giving gold as New Year’s money—what's going on? Did the parents lead him astray? Haha. If kids learn this logic, their starting point when they grow up will indeed be different. But don’t raise him to be a small-town youth who only looks at K-line charts; balance is key. Actually, the key is mindset. Being able to hold through cycles is the real skill. Honestly, I’ve been educated by this kid. I should reflect on my own positions.

Watching kids spend money on games, this guy's kid is just calculating asset allocation, truly impressive. But a kid this age understanding BTC... the parents must really have some ideas, or else how would they teach them?

That's what they say, but do children really understand the risks, or are they just being indoctrinated by adults?
