If you're going to have a money market account, at the very least transfer the currency to Euros or Yen. Oh, but that would be dangerous, becuz then you would have to acknowledge that you are bleeding every day you hold US$ [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Platinum is too risky. Plus it doesn't have the same expected returns as stocks. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

And don't switch currencies to avoid inflation or get higher interest rates. It might look viable at first, but it almost never is.
