Hanna is supposed to hit as a 1 Saturday at 6AM. We stay home for 1s. Ike is a 4 already. If it's coming here, we turn off the water at the street, turn off the power at the box, take the 2 cars, 4 cats and a list of stuff like insurance policies, medicine, collectibles, family pictures, etc.
I have about 90% invested in short CDs and corp bonds, 1 week to 8 years maturity, 5% in longer bonds and 5% in income producing equities, mainly oil and gas pipeline MLP ETFs like TYG and KYE. Also have some munis, a stray REIT, IRET (OTC) and 1 buy/write ETF, BWC.
We have 1 pension and 2 Social Securities that go up with the phoney inphlation phigures so I can afford to keep mostly everything in conservative stuphph, however eventually I will have to change the mix to more equities that have growing dividends.
Let's hope more sheople make it over to here! |
