General Finance: Inflation Protected Securities - The Missing Link
------------------------------------------------------------
Investors usually focus on the nominal rate of return on their
investments, but the real rate of return is what really matters.

rate of return over inflation with no credit risk, you would of
course be interested.

Active Trading: Money Management Using the Kelly Criterion
------------------------------------------------------------
We often hear about the importance of diversifying, but perhaps
it's easier said than done. How much money do we put in each
stock? When do we buy or sell those stocks? These are all questions
that can be answered by defining a money management system.
Here we look at the Kelly Criterion, one of the many techniques
that can be used to manage your money effectively.

Retirement corner: Roth IRA Back to Basics
-------------------------------------------------------------
Since its introduction under the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997,
the Roth IRA has become a popular retirement and estate-planning
tool among U.S. taxpayers. According to a study entitled "IRA
Ownership in 2003" by the Investment Company Institute, Roth IRA
ownerships in American households have increased to 16 million
as of June 2003. However, many individuals are prevented from
participating in the Roth IRA because of the stringent qualification
requirements. Here we revisit some of these requirements and
explore some opportunities that may be available to certain
individuals.
