I'd be careful there...just watch it and be willing to move it quickly. The Chinese are acting very fascist these days, but their communist central committee is still in place, strong, and running the country.

I put ALL of mine in long term securities and bonds last November and have been riding out this whole thing at 4.25-4.5%.

Well ain’t that a fine how do you do! Where the hell was the ping on that one? Just Kidding.

My previous investments I have left alone, spelled at risk, but for the last ten or twelve years, I have put my yearly IRA investment into CD’s which are doing around four percent if you can get it.

Oh PS, previous investments doing quite well, if you consider the 33% loss, doing quite well. Thirty three percent works out to over 100,000 dollars and on a previous thread I postulated that I was almost to the point of taking a trip to DC to have a personal revenge ceremony where I extracted that amount from the hides of Chris and Barney.

Are your long term securities and bonds insured by FDICA?

I hope you aren’t buying up California’s debt bonds.
