Sell Like Crazy

Carl Icahn: 31% annual returns
Warren Buffett: 20% annual returns
George Soros: 20% annual returns
Peter Lynch: 29% annual returns
Clearly, these giants of investing are not relying on referrals to average a
20% annual rate of return or more. They are putting in $1 and getting $1.20
or $1.30 back on a predictable, billion-dollar scale.
In other words, they maximise and leverage money to make more money.
And think about this...
These are the most famous and wealthy investors in history and they’re
completely happy to invest billions to generate a return of just 20-30% per
year. More on why this is important in just a moment.
First, let me ask you this: What are some of the ways you could try and
leverage your money? And what kind of returns could you get?
Remember – you’re not a billionaire or genius investor, so you’re going to
have rely on something simpler and more accessible to get the same results.
Let’s look at some options together, starting with high- interest saving
accounts or term deposits. If you were to invest in a high-interest savings
account, you’d typically look at a 2-3% annual return. In other words, you
put $1 in and get $1.03. This isn’t great, right?

So, what about stocks and bonds? A recent report by the Australian Stock
Exchange showed that over the last 30 years, Australian shares have
produced a 9.5% return per annum on investments. In other words, you put
$1 in and get $1.09 after a year.

But these are just two examples, so let’s look at another. There are a lot of
people making a ton of money from real estate and property investment,
right?
Well, real estate investment has yielded an average annual return of 11.8%
per year over the last 20 years. Now that’s better than the others – on
average – but it’s still not the kind of money that could transform your life
and build wealth fast. You’re still only getting 11 cents for every dollar you
put in.
Not very inspiring. But you’ll be happy to find out that investing in your
