Re: Argentina Land Purchase. Good in a balanced Portfolio or has the boat sailed on S
Agreed - that's why I asked for the company to publish more information. Maybe with these teased out it could be a good enough investment.
No guarantee is 100% safe nor is the rental guarantee of 5% either. This is the same with any company, equity or investment proposition. That is why it's a pity the company didn't post. Nothing is safe, including governments bonds or bank deposits. But it is the level of reward in a balanced portfolio that people are willing to make that have ramifications on future returns, either positive or negative.
No value can be given on an asset definitely going forward but land historically has some value. It would good to know what the price index etc of agricultural land in Argentina is historically, from the company itself. This was stated in my original post, which is suspecting of the offer, and not cheerleading. Btw using big words sets my alarm bells ringing - that's axiomatic, it goes without saying...
I am looking for opinions on a product that is being heavily advertised in the UK press, and trying to determine the opportunity behind it. The point of AAM is a shared forum to critique an investment proposition not for the OP to do all the leg work only. Or am I missing the purpose?
WHat I mean is that the return only comes as the underlying economic activity succeeds. You are putting value at risk, you should have a lot more details - especially where the supposed opportunity is claimed to be so great.

That is extremely naive. Nothing is "guarranteed". The underlying agricultural operation might fail to deliver, the guarrantor might be found to have suffered economic loss and unable to meet the supposed guarrantee.

Again, extremely naive. It is not axiomatic that this land would have any residual value at all, let alone a productive economic asset.

I just found you presentation and discussion of this contained far too little critical appraisal for a public forum.
