one thing you could do in real estate is call your county sheriff's office and find out who publishes the county foreclosure listings. all bank foreclosures are listed there and they have auctions on these propoerties. I know 4 or 5 guys that have built little ghetto empires by doing this.

(Nov 14 05, 12:30)who said you have to invest in real estate in the US?
no offense taken. True that what I said is not anything new, but I learned the hard way in the nineties. I gained more than I lost in the end, but I realized that companies have to keep the guy at the bottom down to make the shareholders money.

buy mid or large cap growth or blends funds. they are mainly invested in cash and stocks, so you'll see good returns with a hedge against a market bust.

(Nov 14 05, 12:41)Very good point. There is another side to this discussion, what are you willing to compromise for profits? A lot of the time, the most profitable companies are not so good for the little guy. IE Halliburton, General Dynamics, Lockheed-Martin, Guidant, Boeing....

(Nov 14 05, 12:51)Yes, guidlines are key. You can ask your broker/advisor about "green" funds.
I tend to get dramatic when it comes to personal decisions. Once a company goes public the bottom line can be all that matters "No christmas bonus this year, we have to meet our projections"
