Real Estate Tips:
One way to diversify your investment portfolio is through real estate. Although real estate might not have the glitz stock market investing, it is usually a solid core investment part of a portfolio. Often, real estate will hold its value when the market takes a downward turn, thereby; buffering any market loss. Make sure that any money you invest is done so with a specific goal in mind. If you just want to preserve capital and beat inflation a little, stick with money markets and bonds. If you are saving for retirement far in advance, look for growth stocks. If you want income streams, look for dividend stocks and real estate income trusts.

All great areas to visit, our family has enjoyed them all.
Take Skyline Drive east of Enger Tower. Beautiful rustic curvy road that feels as if one is out west in mountain country.
Look over the edge at a pull off spot and the city appears below. Great Lake Superior vistas.
Look for the Seven Bridges curvy road down to the lake. These bridges were build during the national public works effort in the 1930's. Very dramatic and picturesque.
Free!
Wonder why they don’t show all the homeless and agendas being played out? They have some of highest taxes and poor living conditions. No jobs except seasonal. Bad streets high rent and only care about canal park area. Very liberal city and push the liberal narratives very hard on visitors
