Redeem your Series E Bond this year - they no longer accrue interest

At the risk of being seen as alarmist and anti-American*, I suggest if you have any investments denominated in US$, that you get out ASAP. With the humungous government and national debt you folks are running, inflation and consequent devaluation of the US$ is very likely. This is why gold is at an all time high (appx $1,100 - 1,200 per ounce) and still trending upwards. People are trying to get out of the greenback.

I don't have any suggestions as to what you should invest in, though, except maybe ammo and canned food.

* I think of myself as un-Australian first, and anti-American second.

Yeah, but if it's been sitting in your underwear drawer, you might be able to auction it off here for $30.....or more if Bruce and Zen get into a bidding war.
