To be honest I find art more appealing than mortgages and was watching close what was happening at the recent Art Basel (annual art fair). Hard to believe but this year the fair attracted about 61,000 art collectors and other folks connected to art: more people than ever before! Ok, it was fair's 40th anniversary, but still business did go quite well! There's a quote from one of the art consultants: 'Anybody buying quality in the next three or four years will feel good about it in the long term.' Off to buy a lottery ticket, who knows... wink.gif

Yeah, but you'd need to have loads of funds available and to know a thing or two in what to invest! And with less known artist, it may turn out to be a very long term investment. ps hope you lottery ticket was lucky one smile.gif

Can I apply for a loan to buy a piece of art? wink.gif To me art at that level is such a specialised area that it's not worth considering investing in unless you are all clued up on it.
