I recently took out a home equity loan ($50,000) to do some major improvements on our house, and the interest rate is only 6.65 %

It got me to wondering if I would make sense to take the  $50.000 and stick it into one of the hi-yield funds FIDO offers, or perhaps some of the Financial trusts offered by Wells Fargo.

Investments like SPHIX, FSICX, WSF, or a junk bond ladder as has been discussed on another thread. I see yield figures like 10.08 8.19 7.31, etc

 What do you think, and thanks .
