<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 2012368, member: 26302&quot;]OK, that is fine. But what about owning farmland, owning rental properties, or other investment alternatives. When a lot of people say &quot;stocks&quot; they mean any investment that grows, stocks are just easy because there is little you need to do to own them. I have done very well with farmland, getting current income and capital appreciation. However, I have to deal with the renter, filling out paperwork and paying property taxes, etc. As such, its not for everyone. Stocks are just easier to hold, but I really don&#039;t care if you dislike them. You could still hold things like rental houses, farmland, commercial real estate, etc to generate a better long term return. Heck, buy a bond from your local city government or municipality. The investment world, like Blaubart says, is not limited to stocks, (which I understand some hate), pm and currency under the mattress.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
