Think of Real Estate |
|
If you want to make money in real estate over the next decade, plan on buying a vacation or resort home. Currently, 6 percent of all homes sold in the U.S. are vacation homes. While the percentage is small, it is growing faster than the overall market for residential real estate. In 2003, 445,000 vacation homes were sold, the highest number ever. This was a 24 percent increase from 2001, the National Association of Realtors reported. |

To understand where we’re going, it helps to understand where we’ve been. If you bought a new car 10 years ago, it came standard with a cassette deck, but a CD player was a somewhat expensive option. If you buy a new car today, it comes standard with a high-end CD player, but a cassette tape deck is an expensive and almost useless option. The cassette tape, which revolutionized the way we listen to and share music with others, is dead. |

On-Line Advertising |
|
Just a few short years ago, before the dot-com crash, any Web site with lots of visitors was thought to be a money machine for advertisers. BlueMountain.com, a greeting card company with 11 million visitors a month, sold for $780 million, even though it had no revenues. But, shortly after the crash, you couldn’t give those eyeballs away, and until recently the industry consensus was that there was little if any value in advertising on the Internet. |
