I hadn’t thought about the tax implications of REITs. And I agree with the strategy of high exposure to foreign stocks. At one time this was considered the epitome of risk taking. Now however I think foreign stocks are one of the more prudent places to be. Strange that Brazilian markets have become as secure as our own but there is nothing surer than change. Raybyrnes mentioned natural resources(“gold, timber, etc”). I am going to look into that because represents another global growth play and because it is supposedly a hedge against inflation. What are the best funds, ETFs?
