Alternative Investments

You may hear of so-called alternative investments from the sharp-pencil boys on Wall Street. This occurs when investors’ interests begin to flag with the plain vanilla types.

The problem is that the alternates are usually too sophisticated for most investors, and are generally too risky.They do, however, generate interest and thus produce articles in the media and more business transactions for Wall Street.
