I have almost all of my assets with Vanguard Investments. 40 percent in the S&P Index Fund, 30 percent in intermediate and short term bond index funds and their high yield corporate bond index fund, and 30 percent in the money market fund. I hate that the money market fund pays almost zero interest, but at least the principal is safe. I also have a very generous Federal pension, which provides all of my living expenses, so my investments are probably too conservative. I would be interested in any ideas on where to move my money market fund assets to earn more than nothing, with a low risk of losing principal.
