Nothing especially new here. Just a treatise on Investing 101, and some international political dribble!

The High Dividend Stock Investor's Collapsing Dollar Survival Guide, Part 1

I've had many of the stocks mentioned over time. I sold in 10/08, and see an additional 30-50% loss since.
Even in the last 3-4 weeks the best Utilities are down 15-20%. Measly divs do help. I'm in bonds , cds, and cash

CLIFF, my advice to you is stick with accounting, your financial logic is wanting!

Why Buy MLPs?

AVI, your statement of EEP as a div payer w/ 1099 is confusing. I visited the EEP site and found------

"Where is my 1099?

A: 1099's are used to report items such as interest and corporate stock dividends. Your investment in Enbridge Partners is an investment in a partnership which requires a K-1 tax form instead of a 1099."
Can you clarify your statement?
