We agree on most things, except how much of our investment portfolio we should keep in cash. She is completely risk-averse and focuses only on the "spanking" we took in the market last year. I feel that by letting so much money sit in CDs earning 1% to 2% we're missing out on better opportunities. Currently, we've got about $500,000 in cash as part of an otherwise well diversified portfolio. Can you help me convince her to take half that money and buy into some dividend-paying blue chips? --Garry, Atlanta, GeorgiaThu, 13 Aug 2009 20:12:00 EDThttp://www.cnn.com/2009/TECH/08/12/deleting.cookies.privacy/index.html#cnnSTCTexthttp://www.cnn.com/2009/TECH/08/12/deleting.cookies.privacy/index.html#cnnSTCTextMore than half of the Internet's top websites use a little known capability of Adobe's Flash plugin to track users and store information about them, but only four of them mention the so-called Flash Cookies in their privacy policies, UC Berkeley researchers found.Wed, 12 Aug 2009 16:18:00 EDThttp://money.cnn.com/2009/07/30/news/economy/federal_budget_deficit/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/2009/07/30/news/economy/federal_budget_deficit/index.htmWhen George Bush took office at the beginning of 2001, the federal government was running a substantial budget surplus and projected rising surpluses "as far as the eye could see."
