Couldn't put my finger on it. I may be wrong about her system and would love to be proven wrong, but I just don't know about it.

It's more of a financing strategy than a savings strategy, but I've been happy with the results so far. Still a little worried that in 20 years I won't be as happy, but it's not like my traditional investments have done anything positive in the last year or so.

I've been looking for other ways to invest my money after reading several financial blogs because the traditional savings account that I have at my bank just isn't cutting it. I was looking into investing in CD's but now that you mention the money market-I'll definitely check that out as well. If you had to choose either one to invest, say around $5000, and you wouldn't need to pull out that money for 5 years, which one would you recommend? Thanks for this quick to the point summary.
