Plus I'm not sure if the increase is as a result of them moving to Bermuda or the almost 50% net income increase from q3 2015 to q3 2016.

no, but then that is what is advised.

I see GHL got a quick bump to $16 but now dropping like a rock again.
Not sure what's going on, waiting on the 2016 results to be published.

What exactly do you guys invest in them for? Is it a rainy day fund, to show a diversified portfolio or for retirement? Curious as to the mindset involved

You couldn't have chosen a better word to describe the returns. There are people who are very wary about investing ,so maybe these are the only options they think they have. When you have a fixed income you tend to take less risk with your savings so this could be the reason they look for stability . You know the saying ,brave money makes money? I take risks to make money, yes it's scary at some times but the returns are unbelievable.

It would be helpful to know in which area(s) you invest.

I trust my own ability to generate money in private busienss versus most investment schemes, including government bonds as the rate of return is normally too low to guarantee long term success without significant loss due to market volatility over a 10 and 20 year periods.
This thread is a few years now... I'm interested to see if Trac made some good decisions ?
I'm not going to assume one's gender, but I'll assume Trac's age... and as an admin, I'd assume you were past the ideal age group to start long term investment (early 20's) at the time of this thread's start date.

On a side note, anyone have a timetable for TTSE stock dividend payouts ?

What's an ok neighbourhood? Why buy there? Are you buying to invest or to live? Because the house you live in is NOT an investment
I've found one of the most invaluable investment strategies to be finding a good mentor, someone successful who is willing to teach you, talk to you, advise you. Surprisingly they come about through the oddest channels sometimes but once you find them and you have an open mind you can move forward. With land is not so much belly as it is looking at what's next vs what's now, places that are hot now will always be expensive to buy and when you think you're getting into a great deal the winners have already moved on to the next one, it takes training your mind to have vision and having patience, tremendous patience.
