One may choose a couple of Greek bonds:

2 year = 62% yield
10 year = 172% yield

'Course, there is not a guarantee that one may receive one's money back.............

I would have to require some collateral for such a loan........perhaps some ownership of property at a Greek tourist island.....ocean frontage property only, thank you.

Reply to @johnN: I'm sorry. Farrell is too much for me. I stopped reading his articles... He should probably start writing for http://www.infowars.com along with Alex Jones.

Thanks for the continuing links, JohnN. It was especially comforting to see so many of MFO members' favorite funds in the "20 Funds That Can Weather Downturns" link - along with several I don't recognize that could be worth checking out.
