Hi Toof, Re: All investments hit a Dead Skunk on the Investment Highway.....

Yes, it is possible. Do we trust Government Bonds or Corporate Debt to a greater degree? Can we believe anything the Treasury says, the FED or even CEOs?

How does one create a "stress test" of one's income portfolio? Stock investments we already know go through frequent and variable degrees of "correction" but how about long dated Treasuries, REITs or Corporate Debt?

I think it was Mr. Lichello that suggested owning cases of bar soap. I think I'll add to that with cases of instant coffee! We may need coffee more often than we need soap!
