If the Euro is so high at the moment, and the dollar is so low, shouldn't I buy lots of cheap dollars with me expensive Euros and wait? Hopefully sooner than later the dollar will get strong and I will become rich...

What do you people think about this idea?

Thanks!

I know there is always a risk factor in Mutual Funds but I received 7 times the amount of interest on MFs compared to RDs for a lesser amount for a period of one year.

Warren Buffett is the greatest living investor and he is known for investing all of his money in American companies like Coca-Cola and Gillette and not gold. If gold is such a good investment then why isnt he investing in it?

Are there any investors who invest in stock options that have created an extra income for themselves? There is a difference between INVESTING and Working for a Living (paycheck). I have been investing in LONG CALL optrions recently. Opened an account with a deep discount brokerage-only $5.00 per trade.. I found one stock-an ETF INDEX option that seems to be working in my favor. Since most foreig market INDEXES seem to move in an upward trend i feel comfortalbe with it. It is the iShares MSCDI CANADA ETF. I have bought and sold it 2 times at a profit each time. It returned more than 50% each trade in 2 months. The discounted broker commission helps me keep more profit to. But again, is it possible to create a second income by trading LONG CALL stock options? Thanks

We had a financial advisor who signed us up for mutual funds. We pay $140 a month. We have been paying this for the last 3 years. It says on our statements that it has a face value of $27,000. What does that mean? My financial advisor explained this in a very complicated way and I didn't understand how mutual funds work. Can some put them in "Mutual funds for Dummies" terms?

Last summer I left my job and returned to school to get a law degree. I have an IRA worth approximately $25,000, and my wife has one worth about $12,300. Since we expect to only have about $5,000 in income for 2007, I was thinking it might be a good idea to convert both IRA's into ROTH IRA's. Is there anything I should know or consider before doing this?

I'm a big fan of index funds, particularly Vanguard's 500 Index and any EAFE (international) index.

I feel, however, that indexes like the S&P 500 could be "tweaked a bit" by excluding those sectors or industries of the economy that have traditionally not done well in a long time.

For example, I'd be interested in an S&P 500 index fund MINUS industries like food production (which has posted negative returns in profits AND shareholder value for the past 10 years!) and several others. Is this a sound strategy?

On a similiar note, is there any website that shows a COMPLETE history of economic sectors of the stock market? I'm interested in finding if any one sector has consistently beaten other sectors of the market over 20 or even 30 years of time (not interested in YTD, 3 or 5 year charts, though).

Thanks for your help.

The system involves selling Footsie Options once a month. The sale of these Options will result in a credit to your account of 3% - 6% per month - which they claim is certain regardless of weather the market is going up, going down or standing still. In 260 months of operation they claim 96% have shown a profit only 4% a loss: having made an average return of 38% for 12 months.
Is this possible?
