Question: I started my job 10 years ago and have been doing everything the experts recommend: working hard, living below my means and saving religiously. But investment returns have been so bad that I don't have nearly as much to show for my efforts as I expected. Meanwhile, I see people who bought houses with no money down, maxed out their credit cards and spent extravagantly are now being coddled by the government. It makes me feel like a chump. Why should I continue to save and invest if the government is going to reward bad behavior? --Mike, Cleveland, Ohio

Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter has an idea that seems to make sense, especially after a trying first week in baseball in which the Indians had seven games either snowed out or relocated to a different time zone, stars such as Johnny Damon, Hideki Matsui and Victor Martinez were hurt trying to play baseball in football weather, and fans, when they bothered to show up at all, sat through miserable conditions to watch something that did not pass for major league-quality baseball.
