Tui.......
MY self nd a friend have been investing (don't laugh) in LEgo for the past couple of years.
I buy sets that are in demand, that will retire and then will sell in the future.
Recent example - one of the ornage 911 GT sets that I was mocked at paying £99 for .... sold £240
Now - that's a ROI that Rolex horders dream of......
Minor risk - but Lego will always sell for what you paid or thereabouts - so never going to be stuck with any huge losses
Its stockmarketeque in some ways as folk speculate on what will retire (and therefore become the SS ROlex equiv) etc
Fun too - Id not put £10k in but have a few £1000 worth at cost to me which is worth (based on recent sales) at least 50% more
Investments (like watches) can be fun
I usually invest surplus monies into my stocks and shares ISA but I also occasionally invest in things I find interesting like watches and in the past have bought Lego sets for a bit of fun.
Having been a fan of The Big Bang Theory I bought a few sets (Brand new sealed) from eBay because it was being retired and currently the sets have doubled in price which beats any shares I have invested in for a while.
Although Lego does have its risks as they can re-released models like the Taj Mahal and this caused the original set to plummet in price.
Also, I enjoy football and have invested in Football Index and made a good return.
Chicken feed waste of time and effort.
