There are good investments now. We just need to look back in 30 years to know what they were ;-) |

Land in selected areas from the 60's also gave a great ROI. |

In 1968 I was offered a 250 GTO and a trailer for $6500. couldn't come up with the $ but I knew it was a deal. The other side is that there were many good investments one could have made back then. There are paintings that I know of that were bought for 75K back then that are now worth 30 million dollars. |

Courtesy of http://www.westegg.com/inflation/
13,700 for the 206S would be only be 61,057 at the end of 2002.
NB This is an inflation calculation NOT a compounded interest calculation.
Also CPI from 71-99 for 13.7K = 56361.79
