Dan,

I'm not an investment expert. Can't give you specifics. I'm still trying to figure out what to do. But I could definitely be included with those 38% of IT managers who won't have money in banks or the market by 2000.

Tony Keyes book: "Year 2000 Computer Crisis: An Investors Survival Guide" is my starting point. I'm in the process of figuring out where to go from there. I posted a link earlier on where to get his book. Most of what's in his book, I already know. But, most people don't. He has one chapter, "Defensive Investments with Offensive Returns" that I think is worth the $29.95 purchase price.

There's one new investment banking company (Millennium Investment Corp), with company principals who are VERY experienced in Y2K ... global economic impact, infrastructure, etc. I'm checking them out. I'm not experienced with hedge-funds OR some of the more sophisticated ways to invest. I've been pretty much a plain-vanilla type of person when it comes to investing. But, this is a different ballgame, so I'm looking at all options.

Cheryl
