Annuities are the waste of money, returns suck big time, I can't force myself into buying them. One of my rules is:
no more than $100k per issue, I learned from the best - JoeE, he crashed and burned so hard and so fast in stock market, that his trading should be studied by all

My WORST and SHAKIEST investments at the moment are:
100k in Ford bond and 200k in GM bond. I was greedy for high coupon.
;(

Vast majority of my dough is in CD's and Government sponsored bonds.
