Exactly my point as well. Investing in diversified assets is a whoole lot less risky than starting and investing it all in your own business.
Also to the fella who said his finance teacher would invest in into 8% muni's.. Find another teacher. A) you'do be lucky to find yields of half that for 30 yr maturities. B) when those bonds mature, he gets $1mill vs us other guys wh invested and got a 7% compounded return and ended up with $4mill.

Yup, unless you get into some really risky stuff.

Not if he's taking the $40m every 6 months and buying more bonds.

It should be quite easy to find muni yields like that. I haven't checked current rates but would be unsurprised if general obligation bonds for the City of Detroit yield much higher than that.
Of course, there's the little matter of wondering if you'll ever see a dime of principal.
