Summary

If you think that because real estate lets you leverage your investment, then the rate of return is much higher than investing in a business, and is, therefore a better place for beginner investors to put their money, think again. This is a commonly held idea that can be completely mistaken. Phil and other expert investors – including Warren Buffett – have owned real estate.
