Income and Investment Diversity
For sure you must have heard of the saying ‘don’t put all of your eggs in one basket’.
This saying holds true for almost every other aspect of your life and undoubtedly
investment is a major part of them.
So, if you actually want to maintain a safe financial standing for
yourself, especially after your retirement, put your eggs in
different baskets. Overseas real estate should certainly be one
of those baskets you consider in your overall plan.
Investment in overseas real estate does not only offer
diversification in terms of investment but also in terms
of currency. For instance, if you are a U.S. resident,
then having all the money in U.S. market means
you are surely at the mercy of just one economy.
In other words, if you are keeping 100% of your
investment in one currency (like U.S. dollar),
your investment future is highly dependent
on the fate of the dollar.
Therefore, in addition to having a diverse
investment portfolio, if you set up an income
stream abroad (like renting out your overseas
property), you generate an income stream that
is totally independent of the U. S economy and
sometimes dominated in some other country.
Never Underestimate the Security
of Hard Assets
Remember that in the current economic climate, nothing
is a more sensible and smart investment decision than
investing in real estate. Particularly, overseas hard assets
are the best and most logical investment class to secure
a strong longterm value.
