Wealthy Americans Invest where returns are best

As my cousin Fred says, wealthy Americans are looking for the best returns around the world. As it should be, freedom to chose and create opportunities with wealth is the best attribute of capitalism. I think that there are some great examples of investing opportunities and successes in America in sports. Look at professional Football for example. Thomas Benson the owner of the New Orleans Saints, purchased the team with a group of investors for about $70 million in 1985 (Forbes 2010 edition reported), it is reported that the team is worth over $955 million.

According to Sports Illustrated Magazine:
