"Back to the 5000 Morris Dancers - I hear the Morris Federation and the Ring are stock piling bells. Are they trying to corner the market before the Olympic organisers realise they need bells for their 5000 dancers? Or do they know that Gordon Brown is to declare that bells instead of pounds sterling is to be our new currency in a last ditch attempt to resolve the current financial crisis?"

As the values of stocks, shares and most other investments are likely to fall considerably over the next year or so, MoneyMan recommends moving a substantial part of your portfolio into bells. Their price has stabilised and the ongoing requirement for them by Morris dancers indicates strong future demand without the likelihood of major fluctuations as seen in the gold market.

Please be aware that the value of your investment in bells can go down as well as up and you may end up with insufficient quantities for your Morris side.

For further guidance, refer to the latest MoneyMan investment guide: "How to make a Killing in Bells". Available from all good bookstores, £25. (Part exchange with a playable pokerwork box considered).
