While researching a recent message,
I stumbled across an interesting ethical food investing business approach that
a billionaire is using that matches my portfolio. Let's call it the Turner Touch
because this is how Ted Turner has diversified his wealth into the ethical food
investing business.
Ted Turner's Ethical Food Investing
Business
My research was about alternative
investment and led me to a New York Times article entitled "Bison Burgers
for Humanity's Sake". You can read more about Turner's buffalo restaurants
and his ethical food investing business there. Only after letting what I read
jell, did I realize that Turner had diversified just as I have. The article had
pointed out that Turner had lost a great deal of money as his Time Warner shares
had fallen, but that he was still worth 2.3 billion dollars. That's plenty for
a little ethical food investing business.
This wealth was broken into the
following segments:
Time Warner shares-his business
$600 million
Ranchland and bison $700 million
(His Ethical Food Investing Business)
Bonds and liquid investments
$800 million
Turner started his buffalo restaurant
chain to create what he calls, "another great fortune" in his ethical food investing
business.
There you have it…a portfolio
breakdown of old business (Time Warner), rural land (that creates income), bonds
and new ventures (buffalo restaurant chain) that reach into this rapidly growing
ethical food investing business.
Until next message, good business
and investing.
