		<description><![CDATA[The most popular type of investments that people make are in collective investment schemes. This makes a lot of sense as it reduces risk for the investor.

Collective investments are funds where the monies of a large number of investors are pooled together under professional investment management. The investment manager then acts collectively on their behalf.

The most popular collectives are unit trusts, investment trusts and Open Ended Investment Companies (OEICs).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you are like most people, your initial reaction to the question posed by the title to this white paper is "no." However, for many investors, the answer is "yes." With all of the investment options available today, many investors are intimidated, confused and frustrated by the investment process. Recent studies also support the suggestion that many investors are perfect targets for investment fraud or already are victims of investment fraud. For instance,



A recent study by Schwab Institutional found that 75% of investor portfolios were unsuitable for investors given their financial situation and goals;



A recent study by CEG Worldwide concluded that over 94% of those holding themselves out as wealth managers were more product salesman than wealth manager;



The 2010 IPT Elder Investor Fraud Survey reported that investment fraud is the number crime against the elderly, affecting an estimated 7.3 million older Americans, or one out of every five senior citizens.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When investing in fixed income, investors are in search of income while enjoying capital security. Furthermore, the negative correlation of this asset class with the stock market can also provide significant benefits to the diversification of a portfolio.

One of the major disadvantages of fixed income in a non-registered account is associated with the heavy tax burden on interest income. In the current environment where rates are low, net income after taxes of this portion of the portfolio can be very thin.

With an asset under management of $1,97 billion, the iShares DEX Short Term Bond Index Fund -XSB is among the most widely used financial products in Canada to invest in fixed income.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Monetizing instruments is a simple investment process that makes it much easier to fund projects and invest in different things when you don't readily have the cash on hand. When you monetize your investment instruments, you turn them from an intangible investment into some form of legal tender. However, you cannot monetize just any investment if you want to be successful.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When someone mentions needing leverage, what comes to mind? Being that I work in the oilfield, the first thing that I think of is a cheater pipe. This is a tool that is placed on the end of a pipe wrench used to provide additional leverage. The leverage comes in the form of additional force to tighten or loosen bolts or a section of threaded pipe.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Whether you have a private business of your own or are thinking more of investing in trading, one way of finding funding is through investing in private placements. This is a type of capital that banks on trading with treasury bills or medium term bank notes, so it is meant to be a more long-term type of investment process with a high rate of return. This can be far safer for the investor than other types of schemes, for a number of reasons.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For some of you, the title of this article might have raised interrogation. After all, how can anyone compare an insurance company business model to an option writing strategy? On a philosophical standpoint, however, there is a similarity.

The insurance company

When an insurance company insures your car or your home, it collects the premium you pay in exchange of assuming the related risk. By selling insurance to a range of clients, it disseminates its total risk while collecting more premiums.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[More and more financial experts agree that we may live in the coming years, returns well below historical averages, which are similar to those experienced during the 70s (secular bear).

What to do in such a context? While some advocate the approach of "market timing" to try to outsmart the markets, some more conservative schools of thought show interest on dividends paying stocks.

Why?

Dividends play an important role in long-term performance of a portfolio. This importance is such that since 1926 the performance of the S&#38;P 500 comes to 43% of the dividends! In addition, during the 70s decade when the market was rather neutral, dividends have accounted for 73% of the total return of the S&#38;P 500! That should make you think twice about investing in the next "hot sector "to make you rich.

The choice of good dividends plays is rather difficult. Fortunately, some specialty ETF's do this job rather well.]]></description>

Yet somehow, choosing the correct moment, is almost out of the question - specifically during a period similar to this past year when trading markets were on a ride - going into an abyss. And even the traditional mutual fund market, had such a difficult time discovering the right times to purchase and sell a year ago, they actually did more poorly compared to Standard &#038; Poor's index benchmarks.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Breaking down the investment, investment holding and finally exit into its component steps is a good first step toward achieving your cash flow and wealth building goals from rental real estate. Next, providing the tools, information, processes, considerations, and vendor resources under each of the component step area is an effective way to assist the new investor or to improve the game of the proven professional or veteran investor.

To accomplish this investing goal, this article proposes an investment model. The models components are:

General Partner and Investor Preparation

Project Identification and Qualification

Business Plan Development

Operations

Marketing &#038; Sales (Developing Investors, Buyers, and Tenants)

Purchase Contract

Closing and Initial Operations

Debt and Equity Financing

Investor Communications

Exit Plans

This model does not attempt to reduce the investment process into more "salient" points.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week I took my car into the repair shop. It was a new repair shop and I had quite frankly been putting off going to this shop, even though it had been highly recommended.

Friends told me about their positive experiences, how the owners were conscientious, very reasonably priced and that I would get far better service than the at the auto dealerships. Yet for some reason I put it off going to see them until my car finally died last week.

Isn't that just human nature? We wait until the situation seems hopeless to change whether an auto mechanic or something as important as an investment advisor.

Why? The answer is simple! The devil you know is more comfortable than the devil you don't.

If you are experiencing pain today, why risk experiencing even more pain? We tend to focus on the negative rather than the positive a change could bring us.

How many individuals are doing the same with their investment advisors in a dangerous game that could affect your financial future? You may be saying to yourself, "but my advisor did well last year."

That may be true, but the bigger question is how did he do in 2008? We are in a secular bear market and stock indexes moves, both up and down, are exaggerated.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How would you like to make a big heap of money, and maybe even become the owner of a few hot properties at a fraction of their market price? Dumb question, right?

Who wouldn't want to sit back and relax at home, knowing that they have a guaranteed profit coming their way? And everyone would love to own a few properties in desirable neighborhoods, that can bring in even more cash through rental income - when you're not using them to enjoy a vacation, that is!

We all know that times have been hard lately, but there's a little-known way to make the economic recession work for you instead of against you. This investment opportunity can actually make you more money when the stock market and real estate market are low! To find out how that's possible, just read on to learn a little more about this unique low-risk, high-return investment opportunity.

Have you ever heard of tax liens? The idea is simple: when someone owns a property, they have to pay taxes to the county in which the property's located. If the owner doesn't pay those taxes, the county places a tax lien on the property.]]></description>
