The Dow just had its lowest May since 1940! Stocks, Mutual Funds, 401K's, IRA's, etc. have long been considered a stable and secure place to invest, but given our current economic situation those strategies have proven to be unstable and high risk. Many Americans have lost a considerable amount of their investments and many businesses have gone bankrupt. The market is upside down, unpredictable, and the risk is higher than ever. Real Estate took a dip with the rest of the economy in 2008; however, it is back on the rise and is now a very promising platform for investing.
