Re: savings and investments
OP - just be careful out there. The previous poster to me is in the business and from previous posts appears to be on the right side. Do not attempt to invest directly with any institution as they will make a fairly decent effort at trying to rip you off. If you are in this for the long haul, there really is no better time to invest in the stock market. The World is not going to stop - it is just going through a major downturn for which the Politicians are endeavouring to reconcile issues. Good luck with your Money but be careful.
