| In 1952, a struggling paper cup salesman named Ray wouldn't have predicted the absurd fortune that was soon about to fall into his lap. Ray was just a regular American with big hopes and dreams that never materialized. But sure as the sun does rise, Ray stumbled upon what's considered the greatest wealth creation event in history - and amassed a fortune the size of a small country. You may have already guessed that I'm speaking of Ray Kroc, the Burger Baron and late owner of the billion-dollar McDonald's franchise. But what you may not know is... McDonald's didn't balloon because it sold burgers and fries... ... nor did its stock price soar - making early investors rich - because of its mascot, Ronald McDonald. Instead, McDonald's became a $100 billion behemoth because of something hardly anyone could've dreamed up at the time... Can you guess? It was real estate - buying and leasing restaurant space to its franchisees! In fact, last year it was reported that McDonald's made $30 billion from renting real estate. Can you believe it? If you want to own a McDonald's, you must pay for the right to use their land FIRST. No getting around it. Which brings me to the opportunity I want to talk to you about today... The $19.2 trillion "leasing" opportunity of 2019 Right now, we've spotted one company that's in the unique position McDonald's was in 60 years ago. And before you ask... no, it's not another burger company... but they are using the same powerful strategy that's made McDonald's investors so much money over the years. Now, I promise to tell you more about this under-the-radar company in a moment... but first let me tell you about the revolutionary breakthrough that could push this company to new highs - and potentially make fast-acting investors rich. It's none other than 5G technology - or, what PC Magazine calls "the investment for the next decade." With speeds 20X faster than our current 4G internet... and wireless giants like Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile racing to stake their claim in it... 5G is like the gold rush of the 1850s. Only this time, the life-changing implications are far greater than the gold rush. Think... 5G will... - Enable self-driving cars and save millions of lives per year
- Open the doors to smart cities... and transform agriculture and manufacturing as we know it
- Allow remote surgeries to be performed by doctors thousands of miles away from their patients
- Create nearly 22 million jobs by 2035, according to Qualcomm
Even The Economist reports that "5G is hard to underestimate, and it will have applications we've yet to even dream of." The only problem? 5G can't operate with its current infrastructure. And that brings me back to the remarkable company I mentioned earlier. You see, 5G requires different towers than 4G to perform... and more land for those towers. Both of which this company holds rights to. In fact, major cellphone companies like Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile are all forced to use this company's services for their 4G wireless towers... and are locked into contracts for the 5G rollout. Right now they've... - Signed a $5.06 billion real estate deal with Verizon to lease 11,324 properties
- Inked a deal for 400 new locations with Sprint
- And are estimated to open 10,000 more locations this year alone
(That's not to mention their 171,000 global locations their tenants are already locked into.) In short, THIS is the company we think you should have in your portfolio if you want to position yourself wisely for the coming 5G boom. We here at The Motley Fool are convinced we're only in the VERY early days of this company's trajectory. Because even if 5G doesn't take off (which is unlikely), this company has secured long-term leases that could potentially cause a massive stock surge in the months ahead. The best part is you can read all about it in a breaking new report from The Motley Fool, "5G Investors Playbook."
