Before I make a big bet in the technology sector, there’s a special indicator I consult.

I call it “The Peter Indicator.”

All It Takes Is One.

That was the gist of my article last week…

The idea that a single investment could create enough wealth to last a lifetime.

The article hit a nerve:

We received a flood of emails asking for more information –

From “How…

Our friend Aitio dropped by our office last week.

He wasn’t exactly “in the neighborhood…”

But with his midnight blue Range Rover and a full-time driver, he doesn’t mind traveling a few extra blocks.

Aitio used to be a general contractor in Queens, and he did pretty well.

In 1997,…

One represents a well-worn route to riches, a route that’s losing steam.

The first story is about what happened in the market…

A few nights ago, I woke up in a cold sweat at 3:45am.

I tried thinking happy thoughts…

I tried breathing deeply…

I even tried switching pillows.

But it was no use: I couldn’t get back to sleep.

Late last year, we put together a little list for you:

We reviewed everything we’d written…

Found five of the most popular articles …

And then compiled them into a list of “Must Reads" >>

Based on the strong response we received, we decided to do…

Someone I can imagine sharing…

Just a few hours from now, the biggest U.S. tech IPO of the year will get priced…

And tomorrow, it will start trading.

According to The New York Times, it could "rank among the 10 biggest-ever stock market debuts of an Internet company."

If all goes well, it could raise…

Many risk-averse investors seek out the stability of big, recession-proof brands…

Brands like McDonald’s (NYSE: MCD) or Burger King (NYSE: BKW).

These stocks may help you sleep at night, but they sure don’t offer much yield:

Dividends from Burger King are less than 1%…

Imagine owning a luxury hotel, just blocks from the Freedom Tower in downtown New York City.

Or owning high-end luxury condos in Midtown East, right near the United Nations.

Imagine the joy you’d feel in owning a piece of Manhattan…

And the pleasure you’d get by earning double-digit…
