And now for another opinion. I'm becoming more and more pessimistic the more I read and see events unfolding. Forget about big companies. Get some physical gold. Even T-bills won't be safe..

Good conservative blue-chip magazine I've found is Kiplinger's Personal Finance (800-544-0255 / www.kiplinger.com). Very solid, relatively non-risky stock and fund picks. I've used their picks for several of the buy-and-hold stocks in my portfolio, and I'm up about 40% for the year. These are the ones I'm sleeping well at night on: established firms where I'm not following every gyration in the stock price, great fundamentals, great earnings - the firms you know will be around twenty to thirty years from now. Try the Kiplinger's Washington Newsletter for a good overall view of economic and political trends. Written in very readable, no BS style. Good background info to frame your specific stock picks - identifies trends in industries, and what's going to be hot and what's not years down the road. Same phone number as above. Regards, Pete
