But how do you know which bonds are reliable and which ones are people just looking to steal your money?
Same thing with stocks really, how can you tell which corps wont steal your money or are able to provide the return they claim?
You really cant, it is all a crap shoot.
The best you can do is spend a lot of time lurking in MD studying who the movers and shakers are, and then start to decied who you trust and who you dont. Also look over past ventures what has been succesful and what hasnt.
