I2: Re: "I've owned a closed end stock fund, but never closed end bond funds. I'll have to think about the advantages/disadvantages of closed bond funds. Do you have a favorite closed end fund or family?" I guess I like Nuveen for single state funds. Go to nuveen.com to check them out for your state. But there are others as well worth researching depending upon the state you live in. Needless to say, there are risks in closed end funds not associated with an open end fund. But even with a Vanguard Long Term Municipal for my state, the tax equivalent yield for me would be 9.31%. Re: "Also, which one of your possible scenarios would a scenario like the stagflation of the 70's fit into?" I guess the closest would be "inflationary spiral." Pass the depends <g>.
