There is a financial group called Capital Alternatives that I read about this week in the paper.
They are offering a really good 1 year fixed rate that im interested in. Basically for a min. $5,000 down, 1 year term you get an 8% guaranteed rate of return.
I don't think you can get a guaranteed return anywhere near that high right now, so I was interested in finding out whether these guys are legitimate or not. Personally, i've never heard of them.
