i was being facetious, doubt you could short from an IRA account also. ill probably end up with a couple of shares of some ETF or equity to broaden my portfolio.. thanks for everyones thoughts.
There's a reason the savings rate in America has fluctuated around zero for a decade. People have figured out that under our current policies the average individual "saver" will eventually lose. My personal advice would be to put the money into insulating you house or buying a more fuel efficient car or just take a nice vacation you'll remember. Anything the average Joe tries to save nowadays is up for grabs in our economic/political kleptocracy. If you understandably want some money set aside for emergencies, then the "buy nickles" advice is probably as good as any - or some commodity backed ETF although you'll still be pilfered by a 28% annual tax on your inflated "gains". It's sad to face, but consider the old gambling addage - if you look around the table and don't see the sucker... it's you.
