Invest In Vacant Land.

Investment in land  is  the best option available..
Investing in vacant land is one among the best.
True, they do not produce anything.They do not generate income. They do promise  some cash flow.
It is a trouble-free option. You need not tend the land. The  only important factor is that you should be cautious so that no encroachment is  made through.

Buy a land at the right price. Allow it to lie like that. Sure, if it is buildable, developers would approach.With that, a huge battle is won.

Vacant land does not encourage competition. It does not earn be the reason. So it is your market and you could buy a huge land mass very cheap. Most lands could be bought with money in hand. There is no necessity for mortgage or loan.

The Land gives you immense peace of mind. it is not going to be stolen like gold and other valuables. It would not depreciate as building does. It does not need any infrastructure. it lies just like that. Eye a right piece of land. buy it and you could make a

 profit though not tomorrow but in the years to come.

Land Value

London and New York topping the list in real estate values. Sydney, Hong Kong ans Singapore stand a reliable second.

Hong Kong and Singapore in Asia are land hungry and each square feet is worth a million Sydeny  beats the curve with high cost in land prices and in between 2011 and 2014 the cost price of land is ballistic. There is already a 2% rise in the land price. Real estate is booming.


In Hong Kong.  the market is stable with only a rise of 2 %. In Singapore, it is a way different. Buying land in Singapore is suicidal says developer Kwek Leng Beng.In Bukit Merah,

a square foot od land was sold for $1162.

Prices are going astronomical. Still there are buyers as affluence also has increased with that the buying capacity.
 To own land is everybody's wish and that has to be fulfilled at one time in the lifetime. The real estate dealers cash in exploiting this sentiment.

Amusement Becomes Pleasure ---Gates And Buffett.

I was amused when I came across a news clipping that called New York and London as Gates and Buffets of rich cities.
Gates is no ordinary man. His activities in business show his mental strength. he is fast and very fast indeed. His hard work and diligence have shown amazing results. Likely, the city of NewYork, which is a city where  most financial reformation and activities take place  is one that resembles Gates dynamic founder of Microsoft. It could be vice-versa too.

NewYork is a city where you could find all races and cultures. The wall Street bustles with activity. The trade is immaculately  shiny.  What is not traded and what else could be transacted. That is the glory of this city.


Buffett is an investment magnate.  He is called the  Wizard Of Omaha. He is a strict believer of values and is frugal in spite of his immense wealth. Buffett learnt the art of stock trade from the rudiments and won high acclaim after working hard for decades. Notably, London, a city of great reputation has been compared to Buffett. Perhaps, Buffett is traditional and moderate like London.

My amusement turned a pleasure after I read a few anecdotes of these two rich people.

Professionals Hired.

Light up. Do not be discouraged. Negatives would turn positive in the course of time.  Time is the best healer.

When a difference arises, leave it for a while. Do not think and get frustrated. let it lie low. Sense would prevail.
 You could then sort it out.

The  story of the four brothers in the previous one is an example of the negative.Another one could direct you to a positive thinking.

Just as this family of four parted ways, there is another illustrious family which still holds together. Their concept is different. They were too much family oriented and the brothers and cousins found out this would lead to trouble. One of them, with a foresight, proposed the appointment of professionals in the top level. The family would have a say still. The seniormost among them would become the Chief Executive officer and would retire at the age of 65, giving way to the next in line. This way they are united and the volume of business has leaped in bounds and has hit the target. The professionals guide them. They retire and in their place another appropriate and competent person is replaced.

Their theory works good. The family holds an enviable status today in the commercial and financial world. They are ranked very high and come among the top 20's in the world.

The Tug Of War In The Business.

The father and son conflicts have destroyed  the business. The siblings difference have also spoilt the business.
A flourishing business was robbed of its thrive by the brothers competition.One wanted to expand, the other  wished to remain modest, while the third was no interested in any and finally the fourth liked to get away from the business and start his own, The four attitudes that we see now could never hold the business together. A balance should be there and if it is not possible better go individual.

As things happened the business was held together each one pulling the strings, The expansion went ahead. The capital was not there and the finances saw a crunch. The one who said let us be as we are now coming in and shouts at the brother who expanded. The third one who is disinterested totally remains the same even now. The fourth takes up the cudgels and says with proof that he wants to go separately.

Well, this being the situation, how could the business be run. They end up by dividing the company into four. The fourth one is the happiest. his case is now won. he moves away. The third one keeps the share intact. The second one invests in another business and works with caution. The first one goes into an  investment spree Whether he won or lost is another question, but the business of the family concluded with a division.

So far  so good.

The Adoption And its Aftermath.

The conflicts between father ans son as  seen earlier weakens the  family business. No two individuals think alike.
 The father, from the old school of management, has his own idiosyncrasies and ideas of management. He might be slow in taking decisions. He would have his own coterie. They would have advised him for long. The growth of the  business would have been slow.

The son, in this case an adopted one, would be quick and sharp. He would have had a large exposure, having done his management courses abroad. He wants growth, not a tardy one but an accelerated rise. He hires professionals.They tell him the old managers ae no good. They should be replaced.
His modus operandi is different and fast.

The tussle starts.. Father, princely bred, feels he has been overwhelmed. He is hurt. It is natural, An eighty-three-year-old man, who had his own way of life  so long is now trapped by his foster son.
He is removed from the chairmanship of his company by the shareholders. His pain transforms into fury. He cancels the adoption decree and proclaims he has renounced his son.

The son, on the other hand, behaves even harsher. He speaks ill of his father. He cuts the remuneration paid by the company to the father. He revokes all sanctions to the old man. He is now the custodian of the business as per the share holding pattern, He and his wife hold the majority.


To get  going and to meet out his expenditure the father sells his house in Hyderabad. He proposes to sell his coffee estate in Coorg. The son  seeks the court's permission to stop the sale. The son's case is dismissed. So goes the.story.


Well, this is unbelievable.  Fairy tales are more credible, one feels. Now with the police complaints  and government intrusions  the conflict has turned ugly.

A foster son cannot become an own son whatever it could be and whoever it might be.

Propagation comes through with justifiable means.  Progeny is through

 the  rightful process, not by deceit and malice.

The Conflict In A Melodrama

Conflicts turn ugly

father  and son quarrel

 the one overwhelms  the other 

 the son  is chased 

 the father is ousted

 the son is one adopted 

 the father very  rich and old 

 feels cheated as the son

gets away with the business

 he cries and weeps before a public

 the son apologises  at the behest of police

 the father refuses  to accept 

 so goes  the fight  on and on

year after year,

it pulls on

 the people are no way interested

 say I with a belief 

 malice returns malady

disaster leads to devastation

 greed elopes with death
