Welcome to 543 Investments.
(read our new article about the weak dollar)
If you've read anything at all about real estate, you will know that it's been getting soft and there may be a downside but how much and how long, no one is for sure. If the real estate market goes down, than where will you invest?
Guess what? That was written a few years ago (in 2006) and we all know what's happened since. It's now June 6th, 2011. The housing market is weak, the economy is weak, and the market is very unpredictable.
So where do you put your money? That is entirely up to you. We aren't financial advisors and we have nothing to sell here. This is purely an information portal to show you places you can put your money but at no time will we ask for money, a credit card number, or any form of payment. This site is for information purposes only and there is no point of sale here. Now all that being said.... if I had money to invest ... I would put it in two places: a safe place and an aggressive and interesting place. Case in point; I'd put my money in a CD, 401k, gold, bonds, or something other for safety and then I would invest in a movie. But that's just me. Maybe it would be 90% safety and 10% aggressive and interesting. Now that's just my opinion. Or maybe I'd put 50% in something safe, 20% in the market (mutual fund possibly mildly conservative), and then put 30% spread out into a website venture and a film. Once again that is my opinion. Just my opinion.
First off you have to ask yourself two questions before doing anything.You have to ask yourself, "Do I have disposable income?" And the other questions would be, "Can I afford to invest in something slightly risky to very risky.?" Because if you do not have money to risk, then put it in a savings or checking account. Or bury it under your house. Good luck buying real estate or stocks. That world is way too unpredictable for me.
You what is predictable? A laundromat, a liquor store, a wedding business, and a funeral home. People will always need to go somewhere and clean their clothes. People will always buy liquor. People will always get married. And people will always die. These are the facts of life. Now they all look (except for the wedding business) very boring and what some would call... the opposite of glamorous. But they make money. Consistently.
Investing in a movie has gotten to be quite the impressive thing these days. Movies can be made for very little and an investment into a movie with a small budget of let's say forty or fifty thousand dollars can really turn around and make big money. Look at some of the small budget movies made recently. The movie "Paranormal" was made for 11,000 dollars (that's right eleven thousand dollars). The first week it took in 77 million dollars and went on to make over 200 million dollars. There are other examples. Take a look right here.
We have a new focus. And that focus is films. But we will never over look the tried and true old fashioned business or store fronts or turnkey operations. Right now we have a very successful business in Westchester county. It is a bounce house business that anyone could take on as a part time thing (if you are too busy). If you wanted, you could definitely make this a full time business as well. It has a well known name. It makes a profit. It comes with a well known website and customer base. Contact us for details. We are here to present the coolest, interesting, varied, and potentially profitable places to invest in.
So welcome. Take your hat off. Keep your eye out for a good deal and a good place to put your money.
