Real estate as the best investment vehicle that exists today. Discuss all the ways that real estate makes you money. Compare with other investments. Compare tax advantages. Show how real estate makes you money today (i.e. rental income) and tomorrow (principal paydown and appreciation). Whereas stocks only make you money today. If you sell your stock for a distribution today, your investment will never gain in value. Also talk about how this can greatly benefit my future( Im 18 years old and Im a freshmen in college)
