I think this is what I've been looking for.
While this post is NOT advice on finances, money, purchases, or investments, I still touch on those things. I think that it is important to diversify assets and not to have all of your eggs in one basket. That said, I recently made a purchase that while it may not exactly have an amazing potential to increase in value, it should at least retain its value and be one asset that I can count on. Check out this short video and see what you think.

I believe the best investment is in eternity! When it comes to God I put all of my eggs in His basket! I am not speaking of giving all to a church. But investing in helping people and investing in what is important to God. Lost souls!
The abacus was a surprise!

I think it all depends on which abacus you purchased. Now if you purchased one made of silver you would be crossing off two boxes.

A real abacus has beads in sets of 5 and 2.
You push 5 up, then you pull them all down and 1 of the top ones.
The top ones equal 5 units.
They are so much easier to read. Your brain can instantly pick out 1-5. It is not good at 7-8-9 objects.
Invest in food! It is currently paying 12% interest every year. And will probably pay more in the future! And you can eat it. (people always complain about not being able to eat gold)

I would go land everytime, if I had spare cash available and the land was affordable.
Homestead Crossing Inc always seems to have some tempting deals.
As you say, they aren't going to be making any more land!

I really like silver its a good investment, a few years ago I sold 10lbs of silver when it was at 32 dollars a oz. I made some decent money that day, and silver price is down alot since then so you know I bought a ton more. I like the abacus its been around for a long time.

My question is, did you own the abacus already, or did you buy it to calculate your investments (or just for the post)?

Looking for something to count such as investment on us very paramount. For every single being that is earning in one way or the other the need to invest in important. You Ned to diversify you don't need to out all your eggs in one basket as @papa-pepper has said.
Lol, actually I thought you wanted to mention investing on real estate or automobiles. However, whatever worth investing on must be able to yield little returns in the future.
