Out of the ordinary! How to make money on alternative investments

Today, many investors are losing confidence in existing financial institutions and traditional assets, the key to which — the discount rate — is in the hands of central banks. The book "Out of the Ordinary" examines in detail alternative investment options: in commercial real estate, precious metals, renewable energy sources, art and luxury items, private companies and hedge funds. It carefully analyzes the features and strategies of investing in each of these assets, for whom and why they are of interest. What is right for you: buying gold or real estate abroad? Or maybe you want to invest money and experience the joy of owning a valuable painting or a vintage car? After reading the book, you will learn how to make the right choice, what questions to ask yourself before investing, how to assess the inevitable risks, diversify deposits and protect your money from inflation. It is important not to confuse investments in objects of passion and the acquisition of luxury items (a yacht, a private jet, etc.). The main feature of investing in objects of passion is the rarity or uniqueness of the objects themselves. Some of these investments are virtually unrepeatable. The book is addressed to private investors, portfolio managers and anyone interested in managing and increasing personal capital.
