I am looking for advise on the best interest rate for government funds/bonds or securities. I did a search on G Funds on this site and noticed that a couple of other people had questions under the comments section about G Funds (one of the options I was looking at), but I can't find the response to them. Is the response not displayed on this site? Or is this service for comments only and not questions?
I found Chris Farrell's greed-is-good response to the question about whether it is patriotic to invest in international funds surprisingly facile and vile. Let's start thinking about what our investments are actually doing -- propping up business in Indonesia, or Detroit?
Money money money. That's all you guys talk about. Get a life. And while you're at it, see if you can get Thrivent Financial for Jews to sponsor your show, now that's "appointment television" I'd pay to listen to. Just kidding. You guys do a pretty good job, and if you were located in San Jose, I'd submit a resume. Just one or two suggestions though: post more key words associated with every segment, at least two or three, I think it might reduce the uncertainty new visitors have when they're trying to recover a story they were listening to (e.g. for example I was looking for the word "humor" buried in the segment I was hunting for on your Friday, October 17, 2008 broadcast (http://marketplace.publicradio.org/display/web/2008/10/17/getting_personal). The website also needs clarification about your broadcast schedule, and how it's reprised on weekdays versus weekends, it's kind of confusing, and one more thing, you have TWO big orange MP3 links at the top of some pages (http://marketplace.publicradio.org/display/web/2008/10/17/getting_personal)which is confusing, you should edit one or both of them. They're too similar. Please change top right one to "Listen to ENTIRE show" and the lower left one to "Listen to this SEGMENT only". I know, everybody's an expert with an opinion and advice. All and all though, you guys do a good job. Sincerely, Peter Ross.
