%67 in 2 tech stocks, and %33 in a frontier cryptocurrency? :eek:

in real life i'd just buy index funds, but if i HAD to pick 3 stocks, i would probably do:

BRK.A
XOM
JNJ

Evenly split:
Preferred Shares ETF
XOM -- Go go oil. Drink up, sweethearts!
T -- Go go interwebs and 5% dividend!

Companies that sell stuff old people like. The baby boomers aren't getting any younger, and there's a whole load of profit to be made on adult diapers and NCIS DVDs.

I would see if SpaceX was looking to raise any capital with a private offering.

Some large multinational corp that pays out a fat dividend and some Muni bonds.

No worries and live fat off the payouts.

Is it wrong to say I wouldn't simply because most of the ones that are worth actually investing in make their money dishonestly and off the backs of the poor? Wall Street represents everything that is wrong with the country and world when it comes to unbridled greed. I'd just keep my billion and give it to what would hopefully be a good cause, but even those are hard to find these days that aren't tampered by some guy trying to pull one over one someone. Man, I have no faith in humanity anymore :/

I also do childrens birthdays! :biggrin:

I'd go to my most trusted financial guy and get him to recommend the best investment guy he knows, then hire that guy to find two or three top guys to manage the investments.

If I am free to use the money, I would build a dream nerd resort. Race track, air strip, huge shop and fab facility for making and maintaining toys, huge bandwidth, several small theaters with killer video and sound. I would then busy myself doing good things for the world.

I don't think watching redtube in one of your theaters whilst a $50 hooker gives you a gobble counts as "good things for the world"
