The subject is required minimum distribution.

So Maibyl writes, I am at the age

where I must take a required minimum distribution

from my retirement account.

Now I don't need the money to live on at the present time.

I have purchased a couple of money market certificates.

Are there other ways to invest the money and protect it for the future?
