Best investment diversification for a trust?

t3h asked:


I’m looking for something in detail, ways to invest with a limited amount of risk. I prefer to invest in stocks, bonds, mutual funds, CDs, real estate, and possibly other areas, and I’m wondering is there something close to a formula (percentage of each type) that will work best for someone who only wants to put in about 20 hours per week on the work associated with the investments.

How does investment in real estate work? How fast can you buy a house that isn’t built?

d_duimovochka asked:


I live in Canada and I think the economy here is well. Now I am planning on buying and flipping a house for the first time. Would it be better to buy a house or condo? Also if I pay downpayment on a house/condo that is still under construction, and then decide to withdraw from the transaction, are there any risks involved? When the house/condo is complete and the value has gone up or down, will I always get all my money (downpayment) back if I decide to sell? And in terms of returns, what is the median percentage I could expect to make flipping the house/condo in let’s say a year?
