How do you guys invest?

On the same subject....

In the street I live, over the last years at least 5 or 6 new villas. Most of them still vacant.
I know a guy who used to do the "house building /flipping", can't get rid of the last one finished a year ago.
A French guy finished a house adjacent to the resort I live about 2 years ago, he managed to rent it 6 months. Now available for sale since over a year.
In a 500m radius 8 years ago there were 2 or3 resorts, nos 5 or 6. But the number of tourists has not doubled...so they all have a low occupancy rate.
These are other recent cases of people in Bali sharing their personal property investment experiences on social media. A person is asking, whether the 10-12% return is reasonable. For context, 10-12% return in equity market in the bull market is not that difficult to get.

Of course, anyone on the internet can make up their own story. However, when people gain nothing from sharing their experiences and are simply trying to help answer someone else's question, they have little incentive to fabricate their stories.

In 30+ years all over Asia I have seen more guys losing their shirt, house, "wife", car...than I have seen guys making it big time.
The worst idea being buying a bar...
