Would love to read Terry's book, but can't get the site to accept any of my cards! Error messages are rather cryptic lus there is no way to contact TC and Co. about this! I purchase items online regularly, seems to be a site in need of some love.

Isn't this just a self directed IRA?

Mr Black,
Suppose you worked for the same company for a long time and bulk of the retirement money is in 401k. You can’t do anything like moving it because you are constrained by what the company offers (unless I quit) right? My income is such that I’m not rich (don’t feel rich) but apparently rich to not be able to contribute to Roth IRA (so Open Opportunity IRA is probably not useful to me because the money is so little in my roth ira).

Black, et al –
You and some other newsletter writers have posited that one way the US government will likely try to work its way out of debt is by appropriating the approximately $14 trillion in retirement accounts held by US citizens. As I understand it, the appropriation would likely work as a law stating that all such accounts must hold a certain percentage of government debt — Treasuries. (I understand Canada currently employs such a law.) My question is this: would not passage of a law guaranteeing a substandard return on a healthy percentage of everyone’s retirement money bring howls of disapproval from Baby Boomers? Doesn’t that eventuality tend to argue against such a maneuver? Could the government really pull such a fast one that a significant swath of voters don’t go apoplectic? I’m inclined to think Congress could do it; I’d just like to hear convincing evidence for or against.
Cheers.

Some of us do not use our credit cards over the internet for purchases. Would you have a phone number for me to contact in order to take a advantage of this opportunity?
