John Paulson famously made a cool US 3.5 billion in 2007. He was among the few who had seen the housing boom was built on sand and bet against it.

How did he see it.

In a Wall street journal interview, I found this Paulson quote

“Where is the bubble we can short?” He was asking his staff. They found it in housing.

I think that is the one example on how to make money. Find a bubble and short it!

In the same interview Paulson gave a vague assessment of the market

He’s also betting against other parts of the economy, such as credit-card and auto loans. He tells investors “it’s still not too late” to bet on economic troubles.

Not to fast that was way back in January 2008.

In a tough economy other people may be looking for “alternative” sources of money. This alternatives may be suing others.

The fact is that anyone can find themselves a target of an overblown lawsuit. If you have a house, cash or investments – heck, if you just have a job – you could be seen as a cash cow by someone else . . . someone who could “slip” on your sidewalk or “fall down” your steps.

There are affordable ways to protect yourself. Your home insurance provides liability protection up to certain amount (sometimes $300,000). But that’s not enough to protect your assets if someone gets greedy or can prove that they suffered a substantial injury that’s your fault. Personal umbrella coverage, which gives you liability insurance above and beyond your home and car insurance, is relatively inexpensive and is a vital part of fortifying your finances.

According to the Insurance Information Institute, you can buy a $1 million umbrella policy for about $150 to $300 a year. The next million will cost about $75, and about $50 for every million after that.
