investments

If possible, find yourself a job that you would enjoy, a job that you know that you would be able to do well. And try to find it as soon as you can.

My reason for beginning with this advice is that Long Term Debt at age 65 is a burden. You will have additional health issues that may be a significant financial burden as you continue to age. Trust me -- I know from personal experience, as well as the experience of others my age and older, that medical expenses can only increase as we get older.

In fact, the most medically expensive month of your life may be the month before you die.

As you know, the financial industry is in turmoil as the Jewels of Wall Street are starting to collapse. Inflation is increasing -- in part because the Fed is reducing the cost of money, again. So we are undergoing a period of transition with turbulence added.

So there are few "safe" places to place your money. I do know that a good principle to follow is to try to preserve your capital vs. trying to get the highest return on your money at this time.

With that in mind, I might look at Inflation indexed funds including U.S. Bonds that are indexed to the CPI or something similar.

Good luck.
