I tried out Betterment and Wealthfront a while back and didn't like the lack of control...I don't want to be in emerging markets with the situation in China what it is, but I felt "forced" into it using those services...I'd prefer to buy my own commission-free ETFs and rebalance my portfolio periodically...but that's just me, I'm a bit more hands-on and have the time most days to constantly monitor my portfolio...that's also why I just contribute to 401K just enough to maximize the employer match...though I have always maxed out my Roth contribution...But just out of curiosity, which do you like better, Betterment or Wealthfront?  

Also if you compare the cap rates to those you'll get in neighboring China (Hong Kong/Shanghai) and Singapore, you're looking at rental returns of 2-3x with less problems in Japan.

I rebuilt a gas stove with parts from China for a fraction of what GE charges.

Industry who have thought these things through.For instance, we’ve seen in China that 12 homes were 3d printed in 24 hours by a machine, another 3 story and a 6 story building was built using 3d printer machines and then the modular pieces were used to construct the buildings.What would this technology do to the cost of building homes, let alone building custom homes?

The last year, as online poker has been dying, Ive been playing mainly live in Macau China, and still does that 5-6 months a year depending on when games are running.Therefor the rest of the year, I got all the time in the world to pursue something else.

Other economies such as China and Europe are drowning with an aging population.  

Were talking the entire rust belt, the entire country of China....
