In a recent episode of WealthTrack, the public television hosted by Consuelo Mack, an investor said one of his employees created a fund composed only of companies that invested heavily in lobbying. That fund did very well.

His only caveat was that tech companies had only recently begun to invest heavily in lobbying so their performance might differ from their general findings.

So, there it is folks: Invest in the companies that do the most to corrupt the system.

Even the best publicly available funds rarely beat the dow or s&p regularly. Investing in index funds is an easy and smart bet for all but the most savvy investors
