My son bought a barrel years ago, which is stored in Scotland and has increased in value. However, he can't afford the cost of bottling it.
What's one health habit you've started that's actually made a difference?

There’s an ad on tv about buying a cask of malt whisky. I was curious as to who would want one and why, so read up on it. I didn’t realise they were bought and stored (for a price) to await appreciation in price as an investment! Known as ‘liquid gold’.
Someone who I know, her husband buys gold coins.
Anyone on GN with unusual investments? Bitcoin (which I don’t understand), fine wines, high end watches for example.
Savings (for those fortunate enough to have them) might be safe in a savings account, it won't earn a lot of interest – not as much as it might if you were to invest it I dare say. Reading up on some aspects was very interesting and got me wondering about this world of which I had no knowledge.
