The books below have not really “taught” me a single thing for Real Estate Investments but it has most definitely changed the way I think (outside the box) about currency, 401k’s, cash flow and taxes to say the least.

These include: The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) and the banking departments of various states also regulate financial institutions.Traditional Bank Cons:Possibly Lengthy Application ProcessStrict Underwriting Guidelines including financial documents to support debt to income ratiosLonger Underwriting Times that can go between 45-60+ days depending on property.Private Lender Pros:Fast & Easy Application Process due to being asset-based lender.Credit Score less of a factor as the weight is based on ability to make payments and not debt-to-income ratios.Generally quick funding turnaround between 5-10 business days. 

Imagine you were a Chinese billionaire, and you desperately wanted to move as much of your money overseas because of uncertainty in your currency. 

Also, I would just consider the crypto as unreachable as well - the whole point of crypto currency is that it's supposed to be protected from fraud, seizure, third party control, etc, for whomever holds the keys.

It really depends on what you prefer, some prefer crypto currency (not me), I prefer private lending / mortgage notes and structured it in a way where there is no ordinary income taxation on it, so it is treated as a qualified dividends.You can invest in anything / any type of business, it really is based on what YOU want to invest in.

Got laid off a couple times, was doing flips on the side already so moved to doing that full time.I've been actively trading and studying currency trading for 3 years, so between that and real estate...I should go Somewheres.

I've found that the currency & accuracy of these lists usually depends GREATLY on which county you're trying to pull the information on.

so he should be entitled to the other coverages that are provided under such a policy, like contents coverage, moving expenses, loss of currency, credit card coverage, liability coverage and one of my favorites, liability coverage for small boats!

@Adam PI'm far from an expert and this is a question for @Brandon Hall or @Steven Hamilton, but  your capital gain/loss on the mortgage may be treated separately from your currency gain by the IRS.However, before you money even goes south, note the following:Sale of Canadian property and non-resident tax If you are disposing of real property situated in Canada, you are subject to a non-resident withholding tax of 25% of the gross sales price.

You shall make all payments in U.S. currency.
