Hi Martin,

Thanks for your advice. This is my feeling as well. If Lehman, Freddie Mae ..can go under and BA almost then its really risky to put my investment there.
I believe you are the expert in your field and how do you go about advising your client – meaning how do you go about charging your client?
I am 62+ and into my semi retirement as a Consultant in Logistics and SCM. At this age of course I wish to preserve what I have saved and make my savings work a harder to beat the inflation. I ve done my own investment but not sure if I should engage a consultant in this area to get me a better returns than what i am doing now.
What are your thoughts on this? Thanks.

Best Regards,
Peter Chua
