Just look at AAPL or, heck, even SPY returns over the last decade. These opportunities were equally available to rich and poor alike, and they certainly didn't require a team of analysts working around the clock to uncover.
I just want to know where these special opportunities are hiding. I do have an investment that pays me an annuity from an endowment that includes some less standard investments. But, while they get good returns, they're nothing truly out of the ordinary.
