I understand that they are issued by the goverment and if the goverment goes bankrupt just about every type of investment will fail. Maybe instead of GNMAs I should invest in an IRA. What the difference? Where would you put your money an IRA or a GNMA and why? Any response greatly appreciated. Thank you L. Litzhoff ihu1e!ler
