problem with the mayo jar is that when you pull out the money from the ground 20 years later you only have the amount that you have, which with inflation has less buying power than when you started.

I think though... the first poster needs to say when he's going to need this money. IRA's are a nice way to invest but if he wants to use the money in the next few years, he won't be able to without substantial penalty'
