Making money these days presents unique, daunting challenges ... and I dont mean "a job", I am talking Liquidity, security, money to provide for yourself indefinitely, and accomodate all the whores you want.

Foreign (and recently, domestic) stocks seem to present the best "typical" way to increase, or preserve your wealth. If you are not vested in China somehow, you are missing the boat. Unconventional strategies, such as buying into entities that specialize in buying out annuities and policies from desperate idiots too dumb or stupid to manage their life responsibly, who will trade their arrangement for lump sum payments equal to 40% LTV offer a decent and predictable return right now. Burg has next year's whore parade covered via this route....

But it is challenging, and this is no time to be sitting on one's arse....
