150 Types of Unusual Investments – The List

101. Ponzi Scheme Claims – investors who have had their money stolen through a Ponzi scheme have a claim against whatever monies the receiver is able to eventually recover.

The recovery might come from sales of legitimate assets that the investment fund or the principals owned, or from suing and settling with third party entities that were negligent or culpable.

Investors that have a claim but need money now may be willing to sell their unpaid claim to another investors in exchange for cash.
