If I was a gambling guy and wanted to keep 200k out of the market.

Jamie Nacht I see you are GAMBLING on appreciation.

They'll tell you about a gamble they made that paid off many times over.

I would count on something like this instead of gambling on a possible market correction.In the case that the market corrects, perfect!

If you go with unlicensed work or owner operators it can be a lot less but you are gambling if you yourself are not very experienced.

@Harry Gamble Thanks Harry

Appreciation is a gamble and it's on paper till you sell the property.

If you've got a good crystal ball and don't bet wrong, you can make a lot of money on appreciation.Appreciation is not gambling over long-term and no crystal ball is needed, only the ability to study history.

between my wife and myself, we lost a pretty decent chunk in the market last year. it's unfortunate, but investing in the market is just like our twice a year trip to vegas....a gamble!

If you are someone sitting on 1 million and you are throwing 5% of your worth at it and you lose it's not usually all that bad.If 50,000 is all you have and you gamble to cash in big or be broke if it goes bad I think that Is not a smart decision.I know investors that buy this type of stuff but it just will never, ever be for me.
