Though I watch them, I have disliked the financial markets for decades. I don't like the gyrations and want to be able to set and forget.

I've always been a precious metals and Treasuries sort of person. Right now, the shorter term Treasuries yield about 5% on an annualized basis. That's what I got at auction today. I've always viewed Treasuries as the last refuge. If they go under, the rest of the country's gone under.
