THX, P. Mine's coming out of Fidelity. Paranoid? ... Perhaps. Will look for CDs now. Another wrinkle: My bank accts are in a credit union. I believe they offer FDIC insured CDs but I have to check on that as well. This is reminding me of what little I know about the saving & loan debacle of the 80s ... wasn't that a similar situation where savers lost their principle? God, I'm ignorant. Untile I became an investor myself, the whole thing bored me so I paid little attention. Regret that now. 'b-i-a' ###
