Investments in wine, art, and other alternatives are looking less and less "alternative" these days when compared with the portfolio Marquee Capital has cobbled together.
"Madonna is a good investment because she's the most successful female pop artist of all time," Chetan Trivedi, founder of London's Marquee Capital, told Bloomberg. "Many of the people who admire her now will be reaching the peak of their wealth in the next 10 years."
Move waaaaay the hell over, Blackstone Group. You guys may own Hilton Hotels, but Marquee owns Madonna items including:
The 1985 "Material Girl" dress
The 1986 "Open Your Heart" gold-tasseled bustier
A set-worn "League of Their Own" Baseball Uniform
And those are just Marquee's "Platinum Assets."
"Gold Assets" include such show-stoppers as:
A Versace makeup case once owned by Madonna herself
A pair of gloves Madonna wore on stage
A black T-shirt signed by Madonna
As far as Marquee's "Silver Assets" are concerned, here's a small sample:
A promotional satin pillowcase signed by Madonna
A Madonna-owned baseball cap
A set of pearls worn in the movie "Truth or Dare."
According to Marquee Capital's website, "The company has five Directors, all of whom have a significant stake in the company."
And those directors, whose "significant stakes" in the company may be the only stakes in the company, are savvy enough to diversify.
