What should my wife do with her money?


Both of us are confirmed gloom-and-doomers... and skeptics...and not schooled in money management, either.

We were both high-school teachers, and we can tell you more about the history and makeup of the US debt than what to do with our own money. As teachers, we didn't have all that much money to deal with, anyway.

My wife came into an inheritance, and she/we are wondering what to do with it.

It's sitting in a Credit Union as we speak... earning .5% Both of us - as gloom and doomers - are uncomfortable leaving it there... or in some kind of institution. With the last crash in mind, and the next one coming up, with the derivatives and toxic financial "products" out there, we both feel our economy is a house of cards.

Gold..? We both think the market is owned and controlled, so we don't think so.

Real Estate...? Hey, there was a real estate crash.

Any of you bright souls have any ideas?

Worst place to ask about handling money DUmmie.

Invest in a pot growing farm, legal or illegal, it doesn't matter. Your fellow DUmmies will make you rich. They value pot above food and water.

Nope, every DUmmy knows that all property really belongs to the State. From each according to his ability, to each according to his need is the DUmmy way

That's a great idea except libs think that rule applies to everyone else but them.

That's what I'd do. And I'd have free pot testing every election day starting at 6 AM.

Interesting variety of replies. #2, masons, suggested "try to keep the government from stealing most of it".
I found that reply, telling.
Others wanted charities to get some. More, suggested spending it as fast as they can. (Various investments & etc.)
All in all, I almost expect DUmmie, Bigmack, to turn Republican quite soon.   :rotf:

Give it to the poor and downtrodden. You know, "live simply so that others may simply live". Why should you have more? Live your values or admit they're for everyone else, not you.

1) buy a vacant lot in the middle of a city.
2) let it go to weed, breed rats and get your neighbors to hate you.
3) place piles of junk on your land. Put abandoned trucks on your land. Breed black widow spiders.
4) call it a farm.
5) play all upset when the city sues you and takes your land away.

Loads of fun! Look at Mo, she loves this game.

My wife made a chicken and bacon stew last week that was great--except I felt it needed more bacon.  It had one pound.  I told her to double it, the next time she makes it. :cheersmate:
