okay just because we preppers don't mean we don't love money.
What little we have, we either squirrel away (paranoia) or invest (avarice). And that suits me fine. i have a bit squirreled in cash, and I have a bit invested in Harmoney, an online peer-to-peer lending site that gives me an aggregate interest at the mo of 14%
But now I want to invest a little lump into something else. You know: diversify my investments. Put my eggs in more than one basket.
And that 14% is so attractive. Right now, NZ bank accounts are getting 2.5% interest. That's appalling. The rate of inflation is currently something like 1.5% so you can see anyone putting their money in the bank is absolutely STREAKING AHEAD. Not.
Ideas? Guaranteed stocks? I want stocks that pay dividends, not just stocks that go up in price. I'm in this for the long term.
