"Stupid" ideas for pretty good investments

Hello! You hear a lot recently about the so-called alternative investment. At first glance, these are sometimes stupid ideas, but as the saying goes, if something is stupid and it works, it is not stupid: D For example, I have heard about investing in Lego bricks and the analysis carried out by "The Telegraph" shows that In the last 15 years, it was possible to earn more on these blocks than on stocks or on gold, because there is a demand among Lego fans for well-preserved sets that are no longer produced. I've also heard a lot about investment wines. My question - what do you think about such ways of investing? How to estimate the risk, how to predict the future demand for something? Or maybe you have any ideas for "sureties" in such alternative investing?

You will never be sure with such non-standard ideas, but in general the idea is not stupid. Hobbyists have always been and always will be. It's like with vintage cars or motorcycles - many have made a fortune on a vehicle inherited from their grandfather, forgotten in the garage. The same principle applies to investing in whiskey. Some also collect craft beer bottles, caps, labels. All in all, it's a perfect hobby for beer drinkers - they drink beer anyway, and they will collect a collection by the way. :D

I once invested in a stupid mower and trimmer when I lived in Scotland. Due to the fact that I am very nice and liked, in a moment I was mowing the grass of all my neighbors. They each paid me £20 for the lawn.

Previously at work I was earning £250 for 40 hours of hard manual labor in production. After buying these two tools, I started earning the same amount of money in one day while having a nice time talking to my neighbors and working outdoors.

Such a stupid little investment, but it paid off.

I will add that after some time the business developed and I had to buy a bus, more equipment and hire two employees :)

It is true, sometimes "foolish" ideas can turn out to be very profitable investments! It is worth being open to new investment opportunities, such as Lego bricks or wine. It is important to thoroughly research the market and predict future trends to minimize investment risk. In my opinion, investing in collectibles or unique products can be an interesting idea for diversifying an investment portfolio. However, one should always remember to exercise caution and prudence when making investment decisions.
