Thanks to a heads-up financial planner, he advised me (didn't take too much) to cash out of some of my stocks last summer...right before the latest drop and get into European currencies and markets.

When I went to the bank who held the stocks and told them what I wanted to do, they got all pissy (Bank One) and tried all they could to both stall my sale and then delay the transaction. They're still pestering me to "reconsider" my actions with all sorts of "bonuses" and incentives. Then the coup-de-grace...the Bank One VP warned me that I was being "unpatriotic" by investing my money elsewhere.

After the election, I pulled the rest of my investments from Bank One...congratulating the VP on getting his boy re-selected and how little confidence I had in him and his bank. Several days later, I got a call from his boss "wondering what the problem was" (he noticed I made a substantial withdrawl...and ended a family association of over 50 years)...and enjoyed boring this Repugnican money vulture a 15th asshole as well.

One very, very, very good thing about investments in Euros and Gold and foreign securities (other than they're earning incredible interest vs. the dollar right now)...it's a lot easier to convert them to cash if one has to re-located to Canada or some other nation where democracy isn't used as a pejorative.

You can open an account and hold your money in any currency you want or you can put it in foreign currency CD's with guaranteed (in the foreign currency) interest rate.

You could also go to www.goldmoney.com, change dollars for gold and then when you sell the gold take the money in foreign currency (also www.e-bullion.com)

Or you can call a foreign currency trader, open an account and have them trade it/manage it for you - www.adenforecast.com they can recommend a good currency trader

Don't open a Forex account and try to trade it yourself. You'll lose money that way for sure.

Good luck, BernieBear
