  "account": "Investing $1,000 and leaving it untouched for 25 years can yield a decent return. Three ETFs that can withstand various economic conditions, including recessions and fads, are the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO), the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT), and the SPDR Gold Shares (GLD).\n\nVOO is a low-cost and robust ETF that mirrors the S&P 500, holding 505 stocks with an expense ratio of just 0.03%. Over the past decade, it has delivered an average annual return of 15.3%. Its strong growth potential makes it an ideal anchor for any portfolio.\n\nBitcoin is a scarce store of value with a finite supply of 21 million coins, making it a strong hedge against currency debasement. Its scarcity, combined with the occurrence of halvings every four years, suggests that it is an ideal investment for a 25-year holding period.\n\nGold, another traditional store of value, is an inflation hedge that no government can print or ban. Its scarcity and the increasing demand from central banks make it a valuable addition to any long-term investment portfolio. Although gold has modest growth potential, it provides stability during bear markets.",
  "summary": "These ETFs are evergreen buys, and they're strong candidates for long-term holds.",
