Hi Jay,

Emerging Markets comes quickly to mind as almost a perennial dandelion on somebody’s lawn; Collectibles are always fun; and then there are always those 18% yield Treasury Bills, after that, Fixer-upper Nothing-down Houses, followed by Private Islands.

The most recent one I've heard of involves investing (read: buying) in uncut precious gemstones which will "explode" in value at some future point. Right, like I know how to evaluate or appraise uncut diamonds or sapphires... But, I suppose that there's someone out there that thinks s/he knows better than the guys hawking these schemes...
