There's some awesome investment ops out there. The return on cash in the markets is pitiful at the moment so we're making our money work in other ways. We had a small account with a credit union in a high yield interest account that we've had for 30 years. Last month we got our statement and they were giving NO interest..NONE, zippo, zilch not one penny! We took it out pretty fast. We're buying our 20 year old and 16 year old some houses.
Take this...a 5 year old almost pristine townhouse with a renter paying $725 a month. Purchased for $21,000. Total payments including HOA, utilities and taxes = $275 a month. That's $450 PROFIT a month ($5400 a year) on a $21,000 cash investment. I don't know of ANY investment returning that kind of profit AND at the end of it all the kids own a house that will eventually increase in value
Gosh, my car cost twice that and I lost 1/3 of it's value the day I drove it off the lot.
Just wanted to share...there ARE great ways to invest out there
