I invest in biotech because that is the area I’m most familiar with. However, one has to have nerves of steel in this volatile sector: our “portfolio” could have 10% swings on any given day. Although D’s biotech stock did very well, I consider this pure luck (perfectly timed buy/sell) and do not recommend this strategy for college financing. Go all cash 1-2 years prior to the due date of the big bill. Miami and sewhappy’s strategies are good ones.
