Conservative? Try a T-Bill!<G>

I bought some of those muni bond CEF's when the entire market got crushed a couple weeks ago. They were yielding over 5% (over 7.2% tax-adjusted). They rebounded pretty far already, but the way to buy those is when everything's getting tossed out. The discount to NAV always opens up because they're thinly traded. You can get some real stanky bids hit (and that's the only way to buy 'em, IMHO). I don't know if that's what you had in mind though, they're kinda volatile for fixed income.

A useful vehicle would be a blend of investments like Tice's Safe Harbor fund, but the expense ration on that is prohibative. Maybe just chuck it all into VICEX....<G>
