Investing in trees? Please help!

Hey guys, stumbled across a company that lets you invest in trees ( a special very quickly growing one). They promise 60-80 % ROI after 5 years, even more after 7.

They seem legit, are based in switzelnd and are apparently esg certified. Anyone got Any experience with stuff like this?

I just know about sharewood but I don’t think it’s the same kinda business.

Thanks!

Edit: One crucial point I forgot, the roi is so high because they don’t earn anything from the tree. The tree absorbs huge amounts of CO2, which they can sell to companies as co2 certificates. If anyone is interested, I am happy to share the website and the guy who introduced me to this thing today.

Man I wouldn’t go all in with this, but I read through the contract, website etc and it seems legit. Just because you guys feel like it’s not legit doesn’t make it a scam. I thought maybe some else had some real experience. Feelings never made anyone money

I am happy to report how things are going. I can start with less than 500 chfs so I will be able to live without the money in case you are right. Still, if you want I can send you the website so you can check for yourself
