How To Make A 21% Return On Your Investment - In Dividends

Hey Dien!

Sorry for my delinquency in posting over the last few weeks, as I've been out of town and then swamped upon my return.

Thanks for sharing this article -- an interesting approach MCI is taking here!

Any thoughts on solid, short-term investment vehicles, with the lousy state of the market these days?

My dilemma is that I want to buy a house within 1-2 years, and want to make a significant down payment to minimize or even eliminate the amount that will have high interest payments applied. So I don't want to tie up my money in mutual funds and the like.

But I know that my current approach of just putting the funds in a money market account is hardly a high leverage activity (shame on me! :).

Normally CD's would make sense in this scenario, but the rates are so poor these days.

Anyway, I'll conclude my rambling here, but I'd be extremely grateful for any wisdom or advice that any fine member of this board can bestow upon me!

Thanks,

-Jesse
