The #1 Investment Rich People Own That Most Poor Investors Do Not
This is the most proven wealth-creation strategy in U.S. history. It's also been one of the most financially exclusive, until now...
Dear Daily Reckoning Readers,
There's one investment almost all wealthy investors own. Some have used it to get rich. Others have just used it to get richer...

In 1927, Alice and J. Willard Marriott owned nothing but a root beer stand. But they started snapping up this investment early. And they turned their wealth into the famous $9 billion hotel and restaurant empire.
As a young German immigrant, Leonard Stern inherited a pet supply company from his father. Not bad. But it wasn't until he dumped the supp ly company and started doing this with his money that he piled up a $2.1 billion fortune.
Ed Roski started doing this with his money just after getting back from the Vietnam War. Now, thanks to this investment, he's worth over $990 million .
The world's richest man, Bill Gates, just put a combined $350 million into this kind of investment, through his personal money management group, Cascade Investment LLC.
And Michael Dell, too.
Dell is semiretired at age 39. But with $13 billion in the bank, he still invests this way. Over and over again. He uses his private MSD Capital Management company to buy as much as $50 million and $200 million of this kind of investment at a time.
There's No Better Way to Grow This Rich
With the exception of winning the lottery, there is probably no better way in the history of making money to grow rich. And even then, this is safer, more satisfying and more certain.
This kind of investment not only helps your money keep its value...
It also multiplies your worth over time.
In fact, it's nearly impossible to imagine having wealth without using this investment as a key part of your investment strategy.
Yet most average-to-poor investors know nothing about it.
No, it's not technology stocks or mutual funds. It's not options. It's not gold, gold coins, bonds or exchange-traded funds. You could say it's not exactly real estate, either, because even though it sometimes is... it doesn't have to be.
But it is simple. In fact, I can sum it up for you in three words.
Marvin Davis did this recent ly to diversify the billions he made drilling for oil and gas. He did it once in the early 1990s and walked away with $841 million. He's done it again with $240 million more recently.
Then there's Carl Berg, who quit processing loans and started doing this... Archie "Red" Emmerson, who used to run a sawmill in his backyard until he started doing this... and Thomas Flatley, an Irish immigrant in Boston, who started doing this almost as soon as he stepped off the boat. Each of these guys is now worth $1.2 billion.
Over the next five minutes, I'll show you how this works.
But more importantly, I'll show you how to do it for yourself.
Which is why I'm writing you today. See, it used to be harder to do this. It was either hands-on or required millions in startup capital.
However, back in 2001, an obscure change opened up a hole in the U.S. tax code.
A handful of smart investors are now taking advantage of it... using it to maintain a steady $218 million profit stream... and they're making a few "average" investors very rich in the process.
They're doing it using exactly the kind of wealth investing strategy we've just talked about. And here's the best part: The way they've done it also opens up an opportunity for the rest of us to get in very easily. And with amazing returns.
I'm going to show you how to do this. In fact, I'll show you one very low-profile way to play this opportunity that's already soared 392%... even as the S&P 500 moved only 182%... for a return that's better than 2-to-1 beyond standard stock market investing.
Dozens of Fortune 500 companies have already gotten involved. As you'll see, there's over $1.0 4 billion in wealth just sitting in this opportunity, prime for the taking. And yet I'll show you how to get in for as low as $27 a share.
I firmly believe this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. And I want to tell you more.
But we should start from the beginning... Cyrus Holliday's Accidental Empire In 1854, Cyrus Holliday was a young lawyer - 28 years old. But he also spent a few months working for the railroads. He loved it. And it' s that fact that could make a few of us very, very rich. See, at the time, Cyrus was married to Mary, his high-school sweetheart. She showed him a map. Where she saw desert, he saw a new railroad. And he set out to make it happen. Mary was four months pregnant at the ti
me. So Cyrus gave her control of most of their funds and promised to send for her as soon as he could. Nearly two years passed. His letters to her are still on record. He wrote from Chicago... from a steamboat... from the banks of the Kansas River... and from anywhere he could, often asking Mary to cash in a bond and send cash. Meanwhile, Cyrus slept on the ground rolled in blankets. He slept under snowdrifts. He shared a windowless log cabin with 24 other men. He survived the winter on mush, molasses and bacon. But he also invested. The $1.04 Billion Left on the Table First, Cyrus bought land in Kansas. Then in Iowa. By the time Mary joined him, he had turned a ferry stop into the town of Topeka. He had been elected mayor. And he was hard at w
ork on the charger for what became one of the richest railroads in American history, the Santa Fe. By 1900, the Santa Fe stretched from the Gulf of Mexico to the Great Lakes and out to the California coast. Towns, hotels and lunch counters sprang up along its path. Cyrus died that year. And he died very rich. But that's not all. See, to grow the Santa Fe, Holliday had to keep on investing in huge tracts of land . Lumberyards, truck lines, petroleum and pipeline operations and vast open swaths of real estate ripe for development. If it came near the tracks, he bought it. And by 1941, the Santa Fe Railway owned or controlled over 13,000 miles of track. Of course the Age of Railroads is over, and the Santa Fe has all but disappeared. But the land is still there.
The book value on all that land is just $2.5 billion. But the real value is closer to $3.54 billion... which means there's an extra $1.04 billion just sitting there on the table. That's a huge opportunity right there. Just counting the future appreciation. But it gets even better. Almost all of these parcels are located surrounding some of the most highly trafficked and desirable areas in America. High-traffic distribution centers like southern California around Los Angeles and Long Beach... northern California near San Francisco... all around and inside Chicago... Dallas and Fort Worth... in New Jersey, not far from Manhattan... Portland and Anaheim... Phoenix and Atlanta... And it's not just land sitting still. This is the key difference. All this land is still in the hands of one group of backers. And th
ese backers are using this property to make money hand over fist. More importantly, a special tax loophole makes it possible right now for other investors to share in those huge profits... and at an enormous discount to what the original investors paid. What kind of land? The same kind that's built the fortunes of so many of America's richest families. Take a look. Should you decide to do this, these are the kinds of income-producing properties you'll own... Altogether, you'll take over partnership in an enormous 41.4 million square feet of income-producing, already-developed property that more than pays for itself. You'll also control part of 25 million more square feet of property, all undeveloped and ready for resale, construction or future rental to other rich companies in the Fortune 500. Imagine collecting rent from the biggest Fortune 500 around. Whether
the market turns up or down, they're obligated by contract to pay millions to keep using your portfolio of space. Year after year, Forbes magazine lists the 400 richest people in the world. Far and away, most of them have made their money doing just what I'm proposing to you. And don't think I'm just talking about the real estate. Because it's not just the property that's making so many legendary American investors so rich. Not at all... Three Words That Make Men Rich Let me ask you this: How hard do you think Bill Gates works? Does he work harder than you? Maybe he once did, in the beginning. But now? Probably not. These days, he just gets paid more. Billions more, in fact. And Michael De
ll - who is now worth $13 billion at age 39 - has actually retired. But even sitting around, guys like these make more money than other people. It's the inverse law of extreme wealth - the more you've got, the less hard you have to work to make it multiply. The question for the rest of us... how do they do it? It helps to have a few billion to start with, sure. But you don't have to have a fortune to make this work. And the secret is not all that hard to figure out. In fact, if you're already on your way to getting rich, there's a good chance you've already discovered what it is. The secret is simply taking what money you do have... And investing it in what are called in the banking industry and investing world... 'Assets that sweat.' To learn more about
