Top 10 Casino Stocks To Buy For 2019

tags:VGSH,APL,DCM,UIHC,ASGN,TIK,REG,ESES,CINF,ISP, &l;p&g;Imagine you are at a roulette table in a casino and are given an opportunity for your lifetime savings of $500,000. You have two choices, A and B. If you choose option A, you will receive a monthly paycheck of $2,000 for the rest of your life. With option B, you could receive a monthly paycheck of $5,000 for the rest of your life.

The choice seems obvious, right? Not quite. If you read it correctly, option B does not offer the certainty of option A. The word &a;lsquo;could&a;rsquo; expresses possibility &a;ndash; and only possibility. That means there is a risk involved &a;ndash; a spin on the wheel. If it lands on red, you will receive the $5,000 monthly paycheck for the rest of your life, but if it lands on black, you receive nothing. Now, what do you do? Is the reward worth the risk?

That is the BIG question! Since I began focusing on income planning in 2005, four out of five clients I meet face this decision: the known versus the unknown, the certainty of a paycheck versus the possibility of making more money in the market. We refer to it as &a;lsquo;income planning&a;rsquo; versus &a;lsquo;income guessing.&a;rsquo;
