Cooking For Engineers

As the wisdom of Warren Buffet goes, Investments are all about timing. Some body with the share of a Technology company for which he invested just a couple of thousand dollars around 10 years back is worth millions. The common reaction to this is that 'he is just lucky'. But what most of us don't realize is that the same kind of opportunities are present now also. A few years down the lane, there will be another set of 'lucky people' around us. So identify the opportunity now!
Investments in stocks is an all time option. There is almost no wrong time to invest in stocks, spare political uncertainties, riots or other natural calamities. The only question is which stocks to invest.
Real estate is another option. Here also like stocks there is no wrong time to invest. If you are in India, Investing in Kochi apartments is a great option. The property prices have started to increase steadily. The anticipated IT boom in the state and the boom in the retail sector is creating a great demand for apartments and other commercial construction in the city. As Kochi acquires a metro status the prices will become many folds the present value. Looking at the present pace of things, that is not very far.
