Use a textbox or a frame.

Two quick possibilities come to mind:

1. Use a Text Box, with the layout "in front of text" if you just need to
put text in the margin on occasion.

2. If you have a lot of marginal text, set up you document as a two-column
table, with your bulleted list in the right column and your marginal text in
the left column.
