Is there any relatively safe investment that makes a better rate than a CD?

I am getting .4 %.

I don't think that is even better than the inflation rate.

Thanks.

Buy a dividend paying stock. XOM is returning an 8.4% yield with a
pretty good up side potential on the price. People are not going to
stop buying oil any time soon.

Best strategy is to diversity your retirement funds: Some in the
stocks/mutual funds, some in bonds, some in FDIC-insured cash account.

Best case is you have enough cash to weather the market going into the
crapper for an extended time and bonds going upside down.

I'm working on convincing my wife we should move some out retirement
funds into tangible assets- Porsche 911 Carrera, top-of-the-line F-150
4WD, 42 foot ketch, matched pair of engraved English shotguns.


Add this to your list.
