Where should I invest money for medium-term savings (the 5 to 10 year range)

I was thinking a mutual fund at Vanguard (where I have a Roth IRA) - one that leaves more heavily toward bonds.

    I am a big fan of Vanguard, and you might want to consider one of their Life Strategy funds, which manages your money for you in a mix of stocks, bonds and short-term instruments so that your money is not subject to market fluctuation when you're close to the time you need it:

    I also like Vanguard Index Funds, which track a benchmark using index management--so you could choose a bond index and let it sit--but then you'd be at the mercy of that market sector.

    Hope that helps.
