These are not the only investments available
There are 2nd mortgages secured by real esate that have a return of 10-12%, short term equity loans are also vehicles you can use. Find yourself a good mortgage banker that is in the business of doing 2nd trust deeds and home equity loans. Your name goes on the deed, your name goes on the tite report. The mortgage banker does the foreclosure in the event the client default on the loan.
Un like the stock market you don't lose your money. You hire someone to do the foreclosing for you. What ever the cost of the foreclosure you add to the home owner as fees. The mortgage banker will protect your interest as he want to to more business with you. He will even collect your monthly payments (for a fee) and send it to you, so you need not worry or bother about it at all.
There are also REITS (Real Estate Investment Trusts) Depending on your interest you may invest in land, hotels/motels, single family development, commercial development. You have to select the investment of the REIT that you want to invest in.
You can team up with a foreclosure expert and invest in foreclosures. They find the properties, you supply the funds for any damages and catch up on the mortgages, then when everthing is settled and the property is sold you and the finder split the profits in a 50/50 split or whatever you have agreed to.
If any of these programs interest you please email me at loanmasterone@yahoo.com
I can provide you with additional information about the programs.
I hope this has been of some use to you, good luck.

Real Estate. What do msot people live in and what is a basic need of everyone. It will always be the best. Do lenders give you money to buy stock besides margin within a brokerage account Wealth is created three ways with real estate as well. Appreciation, Tax benefit and Rental Income. Tenants can be a pain but hey, anything worth while is never easy. |

Why not invest in something over which you have total control - yourself? Read some books and take some classes at the local college. |

Right now, Today? Stock, Real Estate and Commodties are very expensive but the prices for those asset classes are in decline. Cash is king. . When the whole world gives up on stock you should be a buyer. The name of the game is buy low and sell high - the first step is buy low and that ain't where we are at. Buy short term bonds and build cash for the buying opportunity after the market finishes the current correction. |

If you mean stocks as in stock-based mutual funds, then yes. Over the long run they have produced the highest result. I believe the best single stock over the last 100 years has been Philip Morris aka Altria (MO). Something like a $100 investment made in MO before the crash of 1929 would now be worth over $3 million. Unless you happen to find gold or oil on your property, I don't know of too many other investments that can return like that.
Diversification is the key. If your current investments are a couple of stocks and not much else, then there is a good chance you're not getting a lot of performance. Individual stocks are typically the wrong investment choice for most investors. They would do much better with a portfolio of high quality and low cost mutual funds. |

The ONLY good long-term investment is stocks. But the only way to reliably make money in stocks is to buy solid companies and hold them a long time. Anyone who has made money using a "trading system" or made money "flipping" properties in real estate has just been very lucky. Stock traders are just gambling, and of course while it's possible to make money gambling, it's unusual. Long-term, stock will continue to return an average 10-12% a year until the economy completely collapses (if that ever happens), and at that point even if own Trump Tower or a hundredweight of gold bullion, neither will be worth as much as a sandwich. |

Loan all your friends the money they ask for. If they are not true friends you will get rid of the slaggers. If they pay you back you are that much richer. If not, you will never be broke, just your money will be inaccessable at the time you need it. |

The only good investments are the ones you make money on. And there are thousands of avenues to do that. I like new inventions myself. If you latch on to one that goes, which can be difficult sometimes, you could reach returns in the 87-120% ranges. |
