Where do we invest now?
The past few weeks have rocked the global investment world. Stock markets have tumbled, and large banks have gone down. Investors have seen their nett worth eroded over a few days. With the stock markets volatility, and turmoil with financial institutions, the big question is……. Where do we invest now?
Perhaps, it’s not a good idea to cash in your investments now. After all markets do recover. You only have a paper loss, you haven,t lost any money unless you cash in and take the loss. Who knows how long it will take to recover to levels held a few months back. If you don’t need the monies now you can hang in and wait for the recovery – provided you can remain calm and patient. Most investors can’t, and see their stress levels rising to unacceptable levels.
Some groups say there is good value to be had with certain Blue chips now, others advise investing in gold – which they believe will one day return as the world standard with the demise of the U.S.Dollar. Yet others say that with the drop in property prices coupled with the multitudes of distressed sellers, astute investors can find bargains.
The common denominator with all the above options is that they all offer a 50/50 chance of getting it right! All of the above poular investment options have something else in common – the only enjoyment they can provide, is the feeling of joy when the value increases above your entry level! However, many are cyclical, and you need to be prepared to ride through the dips.
Maybe, the time has come to re-assess your investment philosophy. After all , you work hard for your money, and it is soul-destroying to see it diminishing in an investment. One school of thought is that you should invest all your spare cash for your retirement. The other, is that you work hard for your money, you need to enjoy it. As mentioned previously none of the above traditional investments can really offer lasting enjoyment, but all can cause high levels of stress.
You are probably wondering what investment can give you solid capital growth over time, with the added benefit of superior enjoyment. Why not consider a share in a well managed luxury leisure resort – in the form of Flexible Fractional ownership?
