For me personally I like tax exempt municipal bonds. No federal income tax and, here home state issued bonds have no state tax. Is it fool proof, no, but its the best strategy I've found. Right now I've got bonds paying from 4.6 to 6.5 purchased in the last year. Mostly power generation projects and airports. Inflation can hammer me good on yields but right now I like them better than anything going. I do check the credit rating of the municipality before purchasing. Currently using a broker with Raymond James and Associates out of Memphis. I've also been doing some private paper. Vehicle loans, first mortgages, and a couple of personal notes. Risk is a lot higher but so is the rate. Current yield is running from a low of 4.0 on a 4 year balloon payoff first mortgage on a 20 year schedule to an insurance company agency up to a high of 12.25 on a vehicle loan. I'd rather invest in real things than putting voodoo paper into voodoo paper.

Flax provided the fibre which w
