PO-TA-TOES
I am currently planning on what I will be doing for my 2009 Roth IRA contributions and wondering if I should put anything towards items of intrinsic value? I was thinking about putting something small (< 10%) of my retirement into either gold, or land to help further diversify my portfolio. Currently I have my retirement funds spread out over several mutual funds focusing in domestic growth and foreign markets. Is this something I should be focusing on or would putting on a tinfoil hat suffice instead?

My other question is the only way to invest in land for a retirement fund through real estate stock? If I wanted to buy vacant land out in New Mexico for when I go crazy/senile/old would that just be something I have to do with my own dime and not my retirement funds?
