medium to large-sized long term investments

05-23-2002, 04:54 PM

Is there anyone who can recommend a good investment company for long term investments of 1 M plus?

i've been concentrating all my time and effort on my online biz for the past 6-7 years, and beyond some small time investing, most of my assets are currently liquid.

basically, i'm looking for a place to put 1.5 - 2.5 M away, safely, and collect interest from it, at the best possible rate, with very low risk. i've talked to several banks (who have all tried their best to convince me), and i've come away pretty much unimpressed so far.

thanks

oh no. i am not interested in risk. annuities, mutual funds - with low risk. with someone who specializes in personal investments over 1 M. also, i'm in Canada, so would have to have a presence here.

Ask Lens, other than buying cars, boats and going on vacation, I'm sure he has put some cash away on solid investments.

I'd say: Real Estate is the way to go. Never can go wrong there, unless you buy real estate in a dangerous area, like earthquake or twister sensitive area's.

quiet, I know there are some very good companies. Most require $250,000 minimum, and if they don't meet 15% or 20% or whatever their goal is, then they don't pay themselves - that's good motivation for them to not fuck around.

I really don't remember the firm name, but just look around - banks can never offer you very good rates, unless you go higher up the management chain. Though, you can demand many things from banks if you have that money to put infront of them.

Cheers,
Matt

i agree that realestate is a great way to invest. i currently own my own home (no mortgage), and am buying a ski-in ski-out condo right now.

however, i would rather someone else handle the bulk of my investments - if i can find someone i can trust

This place requires a minimum of 1 mil I believe before they'll even talk to you. They may have changed that though. It may not be the solution for you, but they have volumes of information that may be helpful. Yes, email me: amp at opticalamplitude.com

THese guys know their stuff. I figure if you have 2.5 mil you should be set for life brother just living from the interest. You could easily get 100k a year doing nothing.

quiet, how old are you?
also when would you be needing access to this money again, after you invest it?
on a scale of 0-5, what would be the MAXIMUM amount of risk you would be willing to take?

for ever. i'm retiring next year - i want to invest between 1.5 to 2.5 M, and produce the most possible interest SAFELY for the rest of my life. i'm going to keep at least 500K liquid (because who knows what i may do in the future), the rest invested. i already own a home, will own a ski/snowboard condo, 2 cars, and have ZERO debt.

hmm, this sounds like the type of thing i was getting at the bank. like it says under my name, i'm 29. i want very LOW risk. why would i want to risk 1 M +?

Just remember to put part of the money in stocks. Even though you're looking for income from all this money, part of it has to be in stocks to keep you permanently ahead of inflation.

Email me if you want. If not, no biggie, I'm sure you'll find someone who knows what they're doing anyways.

queit, drop me an icq#70649333. I should be able to get you some names tomorrow from a retired V.P./Head bond trader @Gordon Capital. He's conservative and into the capital preservation portion of his investment life.

check this site out as well https://www.csi.ca/pub/en/fcsi/fcsidir.cgi ; it has lots of people you could interview. I'd also advise taking the CSC course from them so you can better understand the investments being made on your behalf.

quiet,

at 30 your biggest risk is not taking some risk

inflation is not a bitch today but it can rape a portfolio that is too risk averse in 5 years.

you probably want something like this

10% foreign equity funds
10% US/CAN technology funds
20% north american blue chip managed funds
10% Canadian index funds
20% low risk mutual
20% bonds
10% cash

but tax is another big issue

I used to do this for a livng in London, my own personal recommendation would be get 3 portfolio assesments from accountancy firms if you are low risk.

I can recommend a head partner at Grant Thornton canada if you need.

Don't take my advice too seriously -- but don't you want to feel your money with your bare hands...? Don't you want to see the fruits of your work? You invest that money on paper and it just disappears into thin air...

I'd buy a nice chunk of land somewhere and do something amazing with it... Read the book, "The Good Earth" by Pearl Buck -- it's a rags to riches type story but one of the main points is that the land is all important... kindof like the spice in Dune... ;)

Also I heard there are some cool tricky things you can do w/ a non-profit organization... but I haven't really researched this.

i agree with you to an extent. but what it boils down to, is what's important to me. after i'm done i want to:

(a) go back to uni and get my masters in Philosophy.
(b) travel the entire globe. i've done fairly exstensive traveling, but it has gotten harder to do over the past couple of years. when i say travel the globe, i really mean it. it will be a huge priority of mine.
(c) catch up on my reading - i'm like 5 years behind.
(d) snowboard a lot more than i have in recent years.
(e) travel entirely across Canada and The US in my convertible.

most importantly: (f) RELAX

(g) also wouldn't mind meeting a new long term gf (broke up with my last one of 5 years, a couple of months ago)

i don't necessarily care about making that much more money once i'm done with the adult biz. i just want to maintain what i have (which is plenty for me), make enough in interest to live comfortably, and have at leat 500K liquid capital - to do something else, when/if i want to...

Sounds like a good plan to me... the bad thing about ownership is you lose your personal freedom -- the more shit you own the more hassle you have...

I live a simple life -- I live in an all inclusive apartment -- it has really given me peace of mind -- I just charge my CC once and I never have to think about paying phone bills, internet, electric, water, waste disposal, cable, etc. etc... the pool is taken care of, the place is furnished -- so I have time to think about most of the same shit that you probably do -- girls, maybe going back to school, reading, traveling...... fortunately none of this is very expensive ;) also the people you meet in this biz makes it a lot easier to travel since you have connections all over the world...

I may get a degree in Psychology -- I'm just afraid I won't be able to handle the structure of school after being self-employed for so long -- the idea of owning an alarm clock is even more frightening -- but going back to college is probably the easiest way to meet the virgins ;)

Anyway that is my anti-social rant for the day.

I have an old friend who works there but on the trading systems not on the financial side. I have also heard good things about them and if you'd like I can try to get a number of someone who works there for you as well.
