My personal investment trifecta: passive income, uncorrelated to stock market, good topic at a party (once we will be able to go to one). A music royalties investment company, Hipgnosis Songs is the brainchild of Merck Mercuradis, former manager of Elton John, Guns Nā Roses and Morrissey; it was founded on Read more
