Wondering how you can trust an investment? 📈 In this episode of the podcast, I share my personal “litmus test” for evaluating alternative investments and private placements.

If you’re exploring real estate, private funds, or other non-traditional opportunities, here are my top three takeaways to keep in mind:

✅ Do they have real skin in the game?
Always ask if the managers are investing their own money, not just raising funds and charging fees. When their money is on the line, their interests are better aligned with yours.

✅ Are there useful tax benefits?
Some investment strategies, like Roth conversion options, can give you substantial tax benefits.

✅ Is the rate of return fair?
Compare promised returns to similar opportunities and industry standards. If returns (or communication!) seem subpar, dig deeper or rethink your choice.
