or something like that... I have no idea at all what I would be doing and do not trust names in phone books. Any advice on how I would go about making more money by having it sitting?
I have already put a great amount into flipping houses around and find it to be exciting, but want to make more if possible. I am from Western Canada and travel to the states at least twice a season if that opens any doors. IT's MY 200th POST!!!!

Congrats on the 200th post.

But sorry I can't help you with paper assets. I'll help you build a revolutionary paintball arena if you want. Haha.

Good luck!

That's why I was never able to open one. Investors won't touch it. Problem is, there is no template for what I've designed....it has more in common with LazerQuest than it does with typical paintball fields, so I can't present an accurate SWOT to investors.

C'est la vie.

And it says you're a full member now. Sweet!

If you're in it for excitement and the possibility of large returns, you're gambling, not investing. Just remember that the higher the potential returns, the greater the risk, i.e., the larger the potential losses. I'm not sure what you mean by "a lot of money", but however much it is, it will be plenty easy to lose if you keep making larger and larger bets using highly leveraged vehicles such as stock options and index futures, commodity futures, and options on commodity futures.

Each to his own, but I'd find it much more exciting to stick that wad in some stock and bond index mutual funds and live off the returns while thinking of anything and everything except money.

I have one very good stock that has been very good to me. Averages about 17 percent each year and has done this for several years. It is HDPMX
I am not much of a gambler on stocks because you never know just who is in control.

Don't invest in any thing connected to food and clothes.

Hello
Think about investment in less developed countries, like Brasil, China, Russia. The rate of growth is very fast in those countries.
If you have enough money to invest, you can contact brokers.
In USA some brokers work with fast growing markets (like Brasil, China, Russia.)
Or you can contact big brokerage companies directly in Brasil, China, Russia.
Something about Russia you can find here – Investment, investment climate, investment Russia, making money, business in Russia, investment in Russia, European investment, what is investment, earning money

Hello Greg:

You wouldn't just give some money to a guy, who "said" he knew how to flip houses, would you? No, you wouldn't. You don't know about stocks, so don't do it yourself.

Until you learn, let the professional managers do the heavy lifting. Those would be the people running mutual funds. You can compare their results before you invest with them.

In terms of learning, there are a jillion books. I like Jim Cramer on CNBC. You can read his book, and then call him up on his TV show. He DOES make people money.

PS> I MISSED the stock OPTIONS part. Ok, you really, really want to give it away, don't you? You're better off betting on black at the roulette table.

Thanks folks.

I have looked at the web site and found it very interesting and will do further research on my own. I would not normally be interested in a eastern investment such as this but will be happy to look more into it. I see you are on-line now and would like to discuss this more with you. But as it is very late I think I should catch some sleep, I would hope you would E-Mail me and tell me who some of your investors may be, and some numbers that are not yet posted on your website. I would also like to know {privately} more about how I would see profit in regards to investing in this technology.

Dodge & Cox Funds and Vanguard - Mutual funds, IRAs, ETFs, 401(k) plans, and more have served and accrued funds for me extremely well. No middleman for the things that I have invested in.
