Well that’s the million dollar questions now isn’t it :)

My investing club is looking into domestic and international stocks that deal in: trees, water, pipline manufacturers, biotech and precious metals, palladium especially.

A mutual fund that steers clear of the housing market and focuses on oil and natural gas, biomed, and top tier technology companies.

Yes—lottery tickets—that sounds great! I wonder why I didn’t think of that myself?
