 Today, there’s lots of ways you can make money. Too many ways actually. Each investment opportunity has its own set of pros and cons with varying degrees of risk and reward. However, the biggest question most financial planners tend to ask is “What is your goal?”. Duh, “To make money!” But, what does this really mean?

I’m doubtful that we’ll dip back into a recession for quite some time. I’m not usually one to make financial predictions, but I wanted to explore the other side of the coin from the usual doom and gloom spewed from the media.  We’ve come a long way since the Dow Jones’ lowest dip in March of 2009 to 6,626 points. The market has come back substantially since the recession bottomed out and is up approximately 68%! Now, the stock market hasn’t fully recovered to its peak in 2007. But, it’s getting closer each month!

Ever since Obama mentioned the word "Nuclear" in his last State of the Union address, I've been looking for ways to invest in Nuclear energy. All through my career in IT I've worked for companies and government agencies that have been involved in the nuclear industry industry. Until recently, nuclear energy always had a public image problem. Over the last 30 years the industry has had several advancements in reducing the waste, reusing the spent fuel, and operating safely. Now with a cleaner public image, nuclear energy is center stage as a real energy solution.
