For instance if I'm in Dubai and have moderate risk profile, I'll invest in real estate.

I’d first pay off my debts.

I’d treat my family to a great holiday somewhere.

My partner, too (different vacation). The first place we’d go would be the island Sao Tomé, which we saw in a documentary, and are really curious about.

I’d give my van a good repair and paint job. I’d buy a hybrid car, nothing flashy, but comfy and with good speakers.

I would invest in my property: renovation of the barn, an up to date electrical installation, new roof and isolation, sky lights, solar panels, new kitchen, landscaping of the garden, good fencing, beautiful plants and trees.

I would invest in my business: renovate the workshop, buy new machines and tools. Buy a forklift. Hire an administration / accounting person to do the paperwork I dislike doing but needs to be done.

I would buy a really good sound system to listen to music.

I’d set a decent percentage of the money aside in a safe long term investment to assure a nice retirement in 20 years from now.

I’d buy one of those abandoned villages with land, orchards, forests and water supply close to Barcelona.

 

I’d get basic services established there: water, electricity, sewage, telephone, roofing, road repair, foundations, heating.

First of all I'll be on cloud nine if that happens. Now coming the question, the answer depends upon the options available & my risk profile.

 

For instance if I'm in Dubai and have moderate risk profile, I'll invest in real estate.

 

If I'm in Hong Kong I'll have more options, I would prefer both Equity & Real Estate.

 

If I'm in an emerging market then all most each asset class have can deliver excellent results (of course the balance needs to analyzed between expectations & ground reality).

 

Hope this helps.
