This is NOT What We Mean By Packaged Commodity Investing

We decided to censor the picture up there because the grossness might cause you to lean forward and hurl lunch remains onto your brand new iPad. We don’t wish to add to the amount of gratuitous violence in this world, so decided to post a picture of a puppy instead. A nice, safe, cute little puppy. The actual picture we could have included portrayed a packaged commodity investor who REALLY got it wrong and ended up electrocuting himself with 700 trillion live volts.

He chose poorly.

The way to profit from the presence of copper in a structure is to buy the freaking house and make money from ALL the commodities contained therein when the price goes up. The way to immediately find out if there’s a heaven or hell is to take your big, bad wire cutters and try to cut a live copper wire out of the ground for resale at your local recycling plant. To be fair, the brainiac only cut into 13,200 volts – not 700 trillion – but the results are probably similar. Once again, this is not the preferred way to invest in a packaged commodity.

By now, you probably really can’t stand it and are screaming at the computer how much you want to see the picture. Okay – click the link below if you’re so all fired up to see BBQ human, but don’t say we didn’t warn you.

Think about it before you click this link…seriously.

Why are some people so eager to risk life and limb to reap a few pennies from a copper wire? Well, it’s actually more than a few pennies but we’ll leave you with this thought about universal demand. World population is growing while there is only a finite amount of basic commodities (like copper!) available for new home construction. Increased demand means price goes up. We hope you see the wisdom in undertaking packaged commodity investing by purchasing the house and renting it out to a tenant rather than digging in a high voltage area.
