The Vice Fund opened for trading today. This link has been making the circuit all month long. The Vice Fund makes investments in industries that are considered “recession proof.” Alcohol, tobacco, gambling, and defense contractors (firearms).
With the economy still sickeningly slow (rising tobacco and alcohol use), and more desperate people tossing the last dice at life, and war on the horizon on several fronts…. it can’t be a bad investment. I believe I’ll roll my 401k into it. Maybe I’ll just cut the middleman out and I’ll open a topless smoke shop with a bar, a Las Vegas room, a gun shop, and a brothel in back.
