The first example he provides is 'investing' in fine wine - really?? Does that sound like a common sense good investment?
Some of the other options (mainly the Real Estate crowdfunds) have been mentioned around here, so I suppose there's some agreement that they can be reasonable if really interested.
My personal thoughts on these options are - we've already won the game with an extraordinarily healthy income (which is essentially everyone on this board) - what really is the need to take on more risk? That doesn't mean you shouldn't do it if you want, but I just don't see the point of the added complexity and risk.

"Good investments don't need to be sold." I believe in this. Evidence & past performance makes me want to buy widely diversified passive index funds. No one is peddling them to me.
I'm weird though. Amazon/Apple/Microsoft in their beginnings would have been "alternative". I would have missed those.$1 saved = >$1 earned. ✓
