    Thanks for the question. It's 1 percent per month, but yes. I am currently 4 percent in equity mutuals. As of close yesterday, I have sold all of my treasury notes/bonds and have moved into a US Federal Money Market mutual. This is is where I take the money to reinvest in the market once monthly.

    Thanks for you reply. I've been remembering you saying something about that and have been considering instituting that policy. It seems somewhat prudent with all the money being thrown into the economy. I sure appreciate your commentary and ideas.
