David, The way I figure it, your investments in bonds would yield at best 6.5%. If you are in a 50% tax bracket, that nets you 3.25%. Not bad, only in your opinion of course! Nasdaq increased by 85% last year. An amount unlikely to be duplicated even for the most optimistic investor. Let's take a pessimistic viewpoint and call for a bear market this year, which you seem to continuously predicate. Suppose Nasdaq stocks increase by 1/10th (one tenth) of last year's pace. That means growth of 8.5%. Take away taxes and you are still left with 4.25% return. It is still better than your bonds. Vince
