About this listen
The world of alternative investing is calling. Are you willing to heed the call?
You would love to make money by investing in assets that promise huge earning potential but as you've already figured out, alternative investments are risky.
If you're looking for the best guide to investing in alternative assets, you've come to the right place!
Introducing Alternative Investments 101, your one-stop shop to fully understand what the deal is with crowdfunding, commodity investing, cryptocurrencies, precious metals, real estate, and even collectibles!
According to Blackrock, alternative assets are projected to earn more than 30-40 percent returns annually! This is in comparison to the 7 percent returns that the stock market has historically yielded.
If you're not investing in alternatives, you're missing out! There is a proven method to investing your money in these assets, and in this book, Mark Pike will show you exactly how you can go about gaining exposure to them.
You're going to learn all about:
- How you can turn yourself into a bank and lend money to businesses or people
- Investing in startups... what not to do!
- The deal with real estate and the best methods to earn a safe return
- How credit card debt provides you with a golden opportunity!
- Making cryptocurrencies work for you...by avoiding a huge mistake that everyone makes!
- The one hedge you can buy that will insulate you from almost all market moves
- Designing portfolios that stand the test of time
And so much more!
Alternative asset investing might seem convoluted to you but the truth is that you can earn a steady return by using some tried and true principles.
Stop scratching your head and join the millions of people who are making them work right now!

This audiobook will take you step-by-step into a little-known area of investing: Private Mortgage Lending. Financing options available to investors who want to purchase and renovate real estate can be limited.

In The World for Sale, two leading journalists lift the lid on one of the least scrutinised corners of the economy: the workings of the billionaire commodity traders who buy, hoard and sell the earth's resources. It is the story of how a handful of swashbuckling businessmen became indispensable cogs in global markets: enabling an enormous expansion in international trade and connecting resource-rich countries - no matter how corrupt or war-torn - with the world's financial centres.

It’s said that filling the observable universe with an infinite number of monkeys on infinite typewriters and letting them type for an infinite amount of time would eventually produce Shakespeare’s works. However, what would happen if we applied the infinite monkey theorem to computer programs capable of learning and evolution? Would a thousand such smart machines thrown together and allowed to evolve undisturbed produce a human mind or something much greater? Well, scientists decided to give it a go and see what happened.

listening to the narration is helpful as it can be listened on phone when doing some kitchen work as well, as well as can be listened multiple times as well, and more about the narration J. Wesley Price does a nice job at narration, he does not speak too fast and at the same time not too slow, which make it easier to listen while doing kitchen work as well.

a nice audio book
Must say that, this is a nice audio book. Good for the intermediate investors, as well as a fairly knowledgeable book for beginner, the main point is that this guy is actually a good writer. Often, investing books are dull, particularly Technical Analysis books but not this audio book.
This audio book cover many different parts of investing.
