“Alternative investment” can sound like a shortcut to higher returns. But before you buy into the story, you need to understand what’s actually creating the return, and where the risk sits.
In this solo episode, Bushy takes you through the Investment Mystery Aisle, covering private credit, unlisted businesses, farmland, infrastructure, gold, collectibles, crypto and specialist alternatives.
He breaks down the Four Ps, Payer, Profit, Paper and Passage, to help you interrogate an investment before committing your money.
You’ll also discover why a regular distribution doesn’t necessarily mean genuine income, how leverage can hide in multiple layers, why “non correlated” doesn’t automatically mean diversified, and why being a sophisticated investor is an entry ticket, not a qualification.
Bushy then brings it all together with the Alternative Asset Passport and Investor Strategy Wind-Vane to help you work out whether an investment actually belongs in your plan.
What you’ll learn:
- The six different types of alternative investments and what drives their returns.
- The Four Ps for stress testing an investment offer.
- How to spot disguised returns of your own capital.
- Where hidden leverage and shared risks can sit.
- Why illiquidity and smooth valuations deserve closer scrutiny.
- What sophisticated investor status does, and doesn’t, tell you.
- How the same investment can be green, amber or red depending on the investor.
- Five practical moves: Take It, Test It, Trim It, Park It or Put It Back.
