Default Re: Tax-free Bond Funds?

I think tax-free bond funds are fine. Just be sure to run the numbers for your particular situation and be sure the tax-equivalent yield of the fund is better than other taxable investments.

Of course, keep in mind that money invested in a bond fund can potentially lose principal value, so they are a bit riskier than CDs or money market accounts where your principal is fixed.
