Invest your money in real estate? (I.e. rental properties, etc)

Buy land? (Agriculture/grazing rental, land near developments for future project resale, recreational use, etc)

Play the market? Savings bonds? Etc..

Start or buy into a business?

What would you do so you had a steady yearly return from investments? Speaking in terms as if you had more than enough money and only used the money to pay property taxes/bills and get a slight/moderate return.

 
high risk trading until you either have enough money to buy a ski resort and turn it into an NS mountain, or you go broke
 
buy a new cottage and a bunch of "toys" and use it until the market rises like it seems to always be and sell then repeat.
 
Get a bunch of it in 1's, and then make baseball bats out of the money. Then I'd beat up people and tell them that if they were rich maybe they could have fought back

It'd be some real class warfare
 
If you used a portion of the money.. what percents would you break it into? Example: take 100k use 40% high risk investments.. crazy earnings or go for broke. 30% moderate risk. And 30% low risk trading to always have a guaranteed return even if not in large sums.. ???
 
That sounds pretty decent.

Source: I have no experience with trading, investing, or the stock market. I do know my way around numbers though and that seems smart enough to me
 
buy a r32, and a 240sx. After that invest money into both of them. Buy cheap condos at a few different ski hills, rent out/use them. Put the rest of the money into the bank for a nice ass retirement.
 
I would buy multiple properties, secluded lots and abandonned warehouses, nothing too too expensive. I would then buy chemicals, many different supplies and equipment. The early stages of my laboratory have begun. I cannot say publicly what I would be working on because various departments of internal and international defence would disagree. Expect vast amounts of anarchy in the years to come.

Its either that, or invest into my skiing.
 
start a non-profit specializing in redeveloping empty lots/disused land to create parks and other forms of greenspace in disadvantaged urban areas. would also advocate public agriculture as well as low rents for newly formed local businesses.

open a fun, laid back restaurant centered around healthy, creative food. there's one in bend that I liked that's a casual sit-down service restaurant, but is also a counter take-out with refrigerators full of beer and other drinks like a convenience store. live music, casual seating, bombass food.

buy a fixerupper in a good location. live in it, make it sick, rent it. repeat. or the same strategy except it's not a fixerupper cause its not feasible with my handyman skills. OR hire a handyman with the intent of being his apprentice in the first scenario--skillz+billz. my uncle has been doing this for years and it seems to have been working fairly well.

buy 600k worth of gold and silver and bury it. cash in at the right moment given that I can find it and dig it up in time.

real estate, then if you get a good idea what you are doing, you could try flipping property, but it is not as easy as you think. I would say invest in a couple apartments if you can, like near a university or growing section of town. You will always find someone who wants to live there. The only thing to remember if you go near a university is how trashed those places can get, so keep that in mind. Also remember that a little can go a long way. If you buy a washer and dryer for a few apartments to share, you can charge more in rent at little cost to you for many years.
 
Six nights out at Nikki Beach.

The parking lot shows off quite well what kind of people go there:

>start fake business

>give myself "income"

>get permanent residency in canada

>eventually get citizenship in canada

>laugh at USA's slow but steady decline
 
This is actually the best idea. Then you can pedel drugs and become a drug lord. Start a cartel, absorb through hostile takeovers other cartels, gain power, use power on governement, take over small country, start war and revolution, take over larger country, repeat until continent is yours, form new coalition and wage war on world, take over world.

Or invest in gummy bears until dead.
 
depends on your age. a simple strategy for investing is using your age as a percentage of where you're putting money.

I'm 23 so I would invest 25% of my money in more riskier investments and the remaining 75% in low risk investments for the first couple of years. since you are probably young, that 75% will continuously be earning (if you chose like CD's or bonds)

every year, switch the percentages up.

for example:

year 1 25-75

year 2 26-74

year 3 27-73

and so on...

it depends on how dumb you want to be with your money though.
 
Let's just use this situation...

You had investments already in place that annually grossed roughly $60k to $65k a month on average. Aside from investments you had "more than enough" liquid cash set aside for day to day living, cars, hobbies, homes, etc. And you were using an seperate amount (let's say 600k) to use for other investment opportunities, as in owning rental properties in vacation destinations, owning a ski retail business, owning a ranch and leasing acreage on your land for others to utilize, and use income strictly to pay property tax, assoc fees, operating costs. All of which which would not effect your liquid cash or other seperate investments.
 
you could start lower and increase every year or start a little higher. like maybe 30-70 for the first couple of years just to see how everything goes. it all depends on personal preference.
