"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!"
It's all in a tax sheltered account.

"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."
Given your supposition, I agree. If it drops, however, that is another story.

Ciao,
David Todtman
