- I am new to this list, so I don't know if this subject has
- already be hashed out. It probably has, but I'll ask anyway.
-
- I currently have investments amounting to about $15,000 in
- my retirement account through Fidelity. This account allows
- you to move money around between any of Fidelity's cash accounts,
- bonds, stocks, etc. This money is in for the long term, so I would
- think that slight fluctuations in the market won't hurt me
- much.
-
- Now that Clinton is President Elect, everyone says to "prepare
- for inflation". Should I be concerned? Should I move my money
- to a certain type of account to avoid losing much money? Or since
- it is in for the long haul, do I not need to worry? Are they
- specific accounts to avoid? Any recommendations on specific
- funds?
-
- Any help or advise you could give would be appreciated, as I am
- new to this game. Please respond to me directly at ciarlett@mizar.usc.edu,
- as I rarely have time to read the boards. If there is any interest,
- I will post the responses I receive.
-
- Thanks!!!
