Looking for short term safekeeping?
US Treasury Bills and US Treasury Bonds. Buy directly from US Government (no fees). Principle Guaranteed by US Government. Unlike a bank CD, in attendance is No federal income tax on US Treasuries. http://www.treasurydirect.gov/indiv/myac… If you own other income, the best thing you could do if you could work it out is to buy a edge owned home that is selling 40-50% below current bazaar. 1. You have a place to live. 2. In 10-15 years the property should own increased. 3. Tax deduction benefits. This is a dying out opportunity to buy distressed property. I wouldn’t buy any home, only a distressed short Dutch auction or bank repo to be exact (again) 40-50% below current market. A polite aggressive real estate agent can help out negotiate. I would prob put the money into US Treasuries for 30 days and do nothing. Then go and get sound counsel. Please just don’t start aggressive investing, speculating, trading, getting into Forex, gold ingots, buying coins, jewelry, buying a new coupĂ©, or
