It's such a boiling mass of changing technology, it's hard to know what will be productive. And then there's Google pumping $100 million into Nanotech. I'm not sure what I'm saying there. I suspect Google doesn't have any better idea of the future prospect of Nanotech than we do. But this is the field of the future. In the Graduate, it was plastics. Today it's energy.
To be honest, I'm eyeing that Tesla car. It's 90 grand, but maybe my next property will be lower in price, and I can jump on one. I don't feel like engineering my own car. It's a bit of a job to do right.
I recently had a minor epiphany. If we simply buy a product, we are in a sense, being investors. Besides, I really want a Tesla. I'm also toying with the idea of a 4wd electric truck. All in good time. And money.
I hope you succeed in your quest.
Edit- I know this isn't an electric car thread, but as a mechanic and engineer, I get a kick out of the elegance of electric cars. Instead of the piece of polished crap I have sitting in my garage, that has a fuel injected V8, dual overhead cam, the electric car has virtually no transmission, no clutch, regenerative braking, 100% torque at zero rpm,... oh forget it. I'm impatiently waiting for photovoltaics to arrive. Then this all becomes a reality.
