Finding new and improved ways to harness energy is where a lot of investment potential lies, but there is also a strong focus within the sector on making it better for the environment. More countries are looking to a cleaner burning fuel, and I suspect natural gas will be a major player in the years ahead. Like with fracking, though, this next-gen opportunity lies not within the energy itself but in how it is transported.

What if I told you that you can invest in companies of the future, and that you can do it with less risk than the overall market? Does it sound too good to be true? It’s not, because that’s what I have been doing for my clients for the last 13 years, and now I want to do it for individual investors like you, too. This is new way of investing that profits from some of the most exciting trends playing out in decades. I call it next-generation investing, or NexGen investing.

The United States has gone from a non-factor in oil and gas production 15 years ago to a world leader in crude oil refining and the largest producer of oil and natural gas. That in itself is revolutionary as the U.S.’ position will only continue to grow and create new opportunities. But we want to dig deeper to find the real money-making opportunities. Oil may not be next generation, but how we get it is.

My investing approach looks at the big picture of where the world is and where it will be 10-20 years from now. Think about the first cell phone. Investors who believed the clunky contraption would soon number in the billions are now filthy rich. A similar situation is setting up for lithium as Wall Street is overlooking the way energy is and will be stored. So if you walk away from this site with just one investment idea, I hope you make it this one: Lithium.
