Default A brain teaser!!!

Hi there,

If anyone thinks they are extra bright out there and knows investments back to front, see if you can answer this question:

'What is the best investment to hold in a perfect world?'

Please read the question carefully and serious answers please.

I am not extra bright and I do not know investments back to front. But after giving your question some thought I came to the conclusion that in a perfect world there would be no need for investments.

A first born child may be an investment in biological and fulfilment terms but unless you live in a subsistence economy I doubt you would regard the happy event as a financial investment, rather the complete opposite.

millermandil started this thread OK...my apologies for the grammatically inaccurate post. Will let you know the answer 2morrow, as it was in fact my boss who set out the question...thus soon I'll know whether the answers some of you have given are 'equitable'....................... or not!

Thank you for participating.
