Historically speaking, Real estate would come out as the best bet for getting rich. Gold would be the next best thing. Real estate is also a very good vehicle to medium level riches. And the best part of real estate like every other investment is. Most people don't realize how good it is until more than half their life is spent. At that point, the entry price of that arena is generally quite high and given all the family responsibilities and other expenses(Health, education and your own retirement) the level is prohibitive enough for most people to not even try. This means people who make these investments early on in their lives(in their 20's) are best positioned to reap rewards from real estate investments.
