Obviously, forex is preferable to HYIP in anyway. Although both are very short-way to earn money and risky sectors, HYIP is much more risky than forex is. In forex if we give time properly on focusing our trades and markets then we can earn profits for sure. But talking about HYIP, it is very dangerous field to invest a money. There is no guarantee whether we get our invested money back or not because the chance of getting scammed in HYIP is very high. Thus, I prefer forex to HYIP.
