I am slowly building myself out of debt but once I have some capital I plan on getting savvy with stocks and spreading some of my wealth across a range of investments. Thanks, Forest.

I don't think the market has bottomed. I believe the recent rally was a sucker's rally and if you're smart you would stay out of domestic stocks (and in doing so avoid exposure to the U.S. dollar). As the biggest debtor nation with a HUGE trade deficit, not to mention a reserve currency that might see tons of inflation, I don't think a simple diversified portfolio will do it.

I understand you are making a point and perhaps it may lead people to buy the stocks you are selling. Life is uncertain and economies ebb and flow as people and nations do. Making wise choices with your money is your only insurance you will have it when you need it.
