In Getting Started in Alternative Investments: Understanding the World of Investment Strategies, a team of accomplished investment and finance experts delivers a concise and robust exploration of mainstream and alternative investments. From cryptocurrencies to streetwear, you'll learn about new opportunities for investment capturing the imagination of the latest generation of investors.

- Niche assets, such as intellectual property (e.g., royalties and patents), fractional ownership of collectibles, and income-sharing agreements
