I'm just curious if one has traveled in so many countries for sure he/she will know what to buy best in that country. Here in the Philippines I think clothes and shoes are the best things you can buy from your money. When I have visitors here from the U.S. they buy tons of clothes and shoes. Lol. A nice shirt could go for P300 up, so that's around $6. A nice pants would cost P700 up, that's around $17. Ladies shoes are around P200 up. I heard in India one of the best thing a money can buy there are leather and Bahrain it's electronics.

I think that there really isn't a best thing that money can buy in the United States because the majority of things that we have for sale here are things that have been imported from other parts of the world. Now, if we are talking about someone from the United States looking for the best investment for their money, I would say that it would be a house because the prices of housing are very depressed right now, but they will eventually come up again and that means in time you will make money on your investment.

If I say about my country then you can buy everything in India if you have money. You can also buy power if you have money. So I think there is nothing possible to buy with money. I think here peoples always think that if you have money then you are a powerful man. But I don’t think this. I think money is not everything. And you can’t purchase anyone’s true love by money.

Hi,
There are many things you can actually buy with money. Considering the investment aspect, it is best to buy diamonds or gold though I don't think the value of gold will rise any more than what it already is. Diamond or platinum, especially jeweleries can be a good investment at this time. The cost of these will never fall in future. For the common man, investing on core sector will be wise decision. The best thing money can buy now in my country is probably food. Due to unpredictable climate food production has suffered greatly. There are other options that a common man may decide to venture. Electronics goods are one of them. But above all, the decision is to be taken by individual. An individual is to decide what he needs right now and has to buy things accordingly. However the present volatility of market has made the buyers shrink from world wide market. Though many countries claim that the recession is finally over, I really don't think the time has yet come to afford lavish buying behavior. Thanks.
God bless you.

I would say... silver, and beauty and skin care products. And if you are really rich, real estate or a high tech company, haha!
