How to get rich - thanks to the government

How to get rich—thanks to the government

When governments spend a ton of money

-- like the U.S. government is doing right now --

savvy investors can get incredibly rich.

All you need to do is know where to stand to collect the money.

As Porter just wrote:

"The President plans to borrow more money over the next eight years than all of the 43 other presidents combined...

"But this will make lots of people rich.
All you have to do is own the most important
economic assets: energy, communication, and transportation.

In the early stages of this crisis,
the value of these impossible-to-replace assets will soar
– because they are the assets the government has to have for the economy to function...
. so you ought to build a stimulus package for yourself.
I probably don't have to tell you
what a huge amount of money the government is planning on spending...

According to Bloomberg, as of March 31,
the total price tag for everything will add up to around $12.8 trillion.

$40.1 billion of that (so far) is going into
all kinds of U.S. infrastructure projects... such as road improvements,
airport runway maintenance, electrical grid upgrades,
and rural broadband internet extensions.
It happens every time:
When governments start spending crazy money on projects like these,
smart investors get rich.

For example...

The Transcontinental Railroad in the 1860's.
Congress approved a "coast-to-coast" rail line to connect all the major cities west of the Mississippi River.

Funded by free government money and land grants,
railroad tycoons and their investors made fortunes.
One was Cyrus K. Holliday,
who became one of the richest men in America
and made huge fortunes for his investors from building the Santa Fe line...

Another was private-school educated John Murray Forbes,
who built the Burlington line and made himself and his investors millionaires...

President Eisenhower's U.S. Interstate System in the '50's and '60s.
Congress approved the Federal-Aid Highway Act on June 29, 1956,
to spend billions on what's now our national highway system.

Thanks to heavy government spending,
firms who helped do the building made easy money for their investors...
like Caterpillar and John D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil (now Exxon),
which made hundreds of percent gains...

China's infrastructure boom, 2003-2008.

The Chinese government spent trillions
on everything from railroad lines and superhighways,
to hydroelectric dams and pipelines.

Investors who followed the free government money made astonishing gains.

For example,

ABB, a power transmission and distribution company, made investors 2,019% gains.

Chicago Bridge & Iron, an engineering and construction firm,
returned 691% gains.

And Foster Wheeler, a pipeline building company, made investors 1,485% gains...

My point is...

When the government spends a ton of money on big public works projects --
for whatever reason -- you could make a ton of money too.

Here's the best part:

The money going into infrastructure
from the economic stimulus package isn't something
that's going to happen in the next six months to a year...

It's happening right now... in all 50 states.

On Monday, April 13, 2009,

NBC News reported:

"President Obama, Vice President Biden,

and Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood

gathered to highlight the 2,000th project (a highway expansion in Michigan) funded through the economic stimulus.

"Just 41 days ago we announced funding for the first transportation project... and
today we're approving the 2,000th project," said President Obama.

" As you can see, in the next four years, government money will be blasted into U.S. energy, communications, and public works infrastructure...

And when you take your 30-day free preview, Porter will show you the three ways he recommends you follow the government money... and potentially "cash in" yourself.
As you'll see, the investments Porter recommends have nothing to do with construction, engineering, or building materials.

(Porter says of one of these companies, "If you're going to build anything in the United States, you're probably going to need this [asset]... ")

As the government money really starts pouring into the system,

these 3 stocks could do as well as the companies who profited from the China building boom -- like

ABB (2,019% gains) and

Foster Wheeler (1,485% gains)...

Porter has put together a report that explains

-- step by step --

the 3 infrastructure sectors you should get into...

and the reasons why you should, as soon as possible.

This report is called Your Personal Stimulus Package.
