Where do you have your savings?

[Swede]

Now that the DOW is over 10,000,people who invested when it was at 6000 made a smart move.

I keep a stable portfolio of moon pies, what a wonderful world of the future I live in.

3. Savings, 401K, and some investments.

The 401K sure is starting to look better than it did when Bush was running things.

[Le Taz Hot]

4. Other: What savings????

Used that and the retirement funds up when we, with no warning, lost all funding for our business.

Bank account, mutual funds, and a few stocks.

Wish I was smart enough to have done as you suggest. :)

[supernova]

11. No where at the moment

:evilfrown:

I had to cash out of the market to finance my latest round of unemployment.

I'll have to start over from scratch when I start earning again. Assuming I find another job.

[MineralMan]

12. I have a pottery jar on my dresser that's full of pocket change.

Does that count? When it's full, I've saved about $100. Anniversary dinner.

[SacredCow]

13. Several places....

Savings account, 401K, IRA,CD's and a few investments in the form of vintage guitars/amplifiers.

I didn't change a thing with my 401K when it tanked- I kept contributing and it was definitely the right decision.

[kestrel91316]

15. All $400 is in a regular bank savings account. My dog, er, uh, my

president ate the rest over the past 6 years.

[ecstatic]

16. I wanted to but didn't know where to start

My bet on citi would have been wrong though...

[closeupready]

26. Thank you! I started reading about the stock market last November

and didn't actually get into it until March. It turns out that was perfect timing and I've done very well since then! and it's a lot of fun.

[redqueen]

27. In a savings account.

It's not big enough to do any fancy stuff with it, and I regularly have to empty it for emergencies/unexpected expenses.

[brendan120678]

28. A good mix...

Mostly savings, but also some bonds, CD's, and our 401K / 403B programs.

[Speck Tater]

29. Other: A big old pickle jar in the closet. Must be nearly 30 bucks in pennies by now. nt

All I have are leavings.

[seabeyond]

investiment and bonds....

diversity and availability

[akwapez]

32. Why is "What Savings?" not an option? nt

[pipi_k]

33. All sorts of places...

I have a CD and savings account in one credit union

A savings account in another credit union

Three or four regular bank savings accounts

And a huge jar full of loose change


I used to have an online Treasury bonds account but used the money to buy a new washer and dryer...although there's still a small amount left


Of course, these are shared accounts with Mr Pip


We don't put aside a whole LOT of money each month, we just do it consistently, and after a while it adds up painlessly.

:)

[Xenotime]

34. Savings??!? "Spend it now!" I say..

[debbierlus]

35. WHAT savings?

[Igel]

36. Cash savings, bank.

Additional savings into the tyke's education fund. That's in a tax-sheltered fund that invests primarily in stock funds, for the time being.

If I had more cash, it would go mutual funds, bonds, and stock funds (in that order).

Otherwise, savings go into things that I can use, in which I value quality, and which also appreciate on the whole: good violin, good viola, good bow, good guitar, house.

[TransitJohn]

37. LOL...you said savings.

What are those.
signed,
Another paycheck to paycheck dude.

[upi402]

38. lol

smart move?

i wish there were a smart move to make. maybe a farm with a good water source and good topsoil. i've decided that gold is past its time now too. but stocks are propped up houses of cards. good luck tho! really, i hope they continue to increase for concrete reasons - like selling stuff to other countries that we make here. lol
