Probably the best solution, but not without its faults...

If you are in Money Market funds... two weeks ago one of the brokerage
houses declared a 'bank holiday' on their MM fund: said no withdrawals
for a week and then after that, they would give you 97 cents on the
dollar. That was only the opening round. I expect we will see worse than
that.

If you are in CDs or any other FDIC insured vehicle, once there are a
lot of bank failures, the FDIC won't have the actual cash on hand to pay
what they are insuring, will then crank up the printing presses and pay
us back in devalued dollars. And yes, this scenario will affect you even
if you have your cash in an old sock under the mattress -- it will be
devalued too.

As I type this (1130 UTC), the foreign markets have taken a big dump and
the 'futures' don't bode well for when our market opens in a few hours.
The Financial Feces are really hitting the fan.

Hang on boys and girls, we're in for a rough ride... :-(


Buying Opportunity!
