A common question from prospective investors who come to our seminars, is about the difference between investment and speculation.
Speculation is…
You buy an asset that MUST go up in value to make money. Examples would be: gold, most non-dividend paying stocks, most mutual funds or ETFs, buying call or put options, flipping condos, expensive single family homes or condos, diamonds, paintings, and antique cars.
Investment is…
What we do. We buy an asset with income, so that even in a flat or declining market you can make money with it. It’s why our investment strategy is especially attractive to so many people in these uncertain economic times.
