8 of History' s best Investments

8 of history' s best investments

Who dares wins. This could be a good title for this article in which visionary (and also lucky) men were able to make a lot of money with a "simple" investment. I think that the central thread of this article is: Try to combine an intelligent investor with the right investment at the right time and you will give to your audience a great story to tell.
The author try to convince us to value these investments on their "ROI" [return on investments = (gain on investments-costs of investments)/costs of investments] that could be used clearly like an indicator of efficiency and so a good ROI means a good nature investments, but I want to focus my attention on the good nature of the investors.
Can we consider a folly the idea of investing $25 million ($135 million today) on a candy company? That is pointless for some of us. Investing $2.7 million ($20.4 million today) on a fast food company is also irrational. Investing $6.7 million ($9.9 million today) in an intagible "start up" is something crazy. But there are/were people in the world that try to "think differently" and so "act differently" and these people now are billionaire. This is an intelligent investor.
