If I had that kind of money to play around with, I would have classic cars in my portfolio . There is no other investment currently out there that offers a better ROI in a similar time frame.

Commodities such as gold and silver also a very good investment, but long term.

Excellent. And also a reason why you guys live in a smog filled country year round and have to declare multiple states of health emergencies resulting in not letting citizens go outside. China, its going places.... ;-/

Also as a side note you can not substitute one thing for another. Down the road there will always be repercussions, just like several decades of unregulated manufacturing. Enjoy breathing that shit. This is a picture from the former imperialist colony aka administrative zone (HK) taken in 2014

So what does all this have to do with the definition of land? I'm just making a comment of what you said in the beginning.

"A lot of things can be made and sold. But one thing you cant make more of, is land."

So I guess you agree that its actually possible to make more land right?

You seem to really think HK is China as a whole for some reason. Hopefully you don't get the two mixed up for your uneducated arguments. Oh btw, might also wanna update yourself on the news of China too. Things change quite fast for a huge developing country. The smog filled year round shit hole you're referring to is more Shanghai area. That's like saying the manufacturing in Detroit will affect air quality in Seattle. Might wanna lay off that CNN and Fox news and get some real facts before bashing an entire country you seem to know nothing about.

I'm not saying China is great. Honestly it isn't but you don't need to nitpick on another thing when someone proves you wrong. You don't see me pointing out shitty things that are going on in the states do you? BTW, I'm Canadian, sorry.

I would invest half of it in low risk mutual funds and then take the other half over to my friend Asadulah who works in securities.

I guess can't do much with those 300-400k PS. This guy with 5 mil wants to buy some start up or or something. He is really looking at 10% return on his money at least. Its pretty much the only money he has and needs income to support his family 100%

I only see real estate construction/development or perhaps some investment firm (instead of investing himself) Friend of mine works in company like that, he said avg returns are in teens with minimum investment of $5mil

I was extremely fortunate to have been given a special opportunity by a member of the Nigerian Royal Family. The paperwork still hasnt cleared yet, you know how slow things like that can be. Once it does, I'd expect my ROI to be pretty spectacular.

Sorry, that doesnt really help the OP if he isnt as lucky as me when it comes to being in the right place at the right time, such a windfall is probably not available to him.
