@Chinku Chinku the rich get rich by making their money work for them.They borrow at one rate, to invest in something that returns a higher rate - they profit on the difference.Only you can evaluate your risk tolerence though.

Investors are particularly interested in properties near major universities, as they offer stable and growing returns.

Investing this amount in passive deals might not provide immediate income, and you could end up waiting years to see returns (similar case in most investments.)
