roll investment

[magithighs]

Just a quick question about how you to invest your bankroll. I have two bankrolls to work from -- my short term bankroll (300BB) and my long term bank roll (1 yr's salary).

I really don't want any large swings in my long term bankroll, but I hate getting a 2-3% return on that money on CD type investments.

Do any of you invest this in relatively secure dividend yielding stocks like bank stocks or financial services funds?

Is a 2-3% CD type (canada we have GICs) investment the way to go, to ensure you get something with no headaches?

Do you take higher risks and would that detract from your game? ie. a .5 swing in CISCO makes you think differently.

I have a normal stock portfolio, but really want to keep a 1 year salary as my overall bankroll to play.

Any thoughts?

Cheers
