I remember years ago when I first got into investing, being confronted with the decision of where to invest my money. When I settled on Mutual Funds I then wanted to know what companies my Mutual Fund was investing in. I didn’t want to support or profit in anyway from companies that do business in an area that I avoid on personal convictions. Got that, personal convictions.

I remember the Timothy Plan group of funds; not great mutual funds but would give me the peace of mind knowing my money was going in a direction I approve. Eventually I got tired head, and decided to just invest in something basic and easy to understand.

Then I stumble upon this in my morning paper. Here is Link to the Article.
Here is a direct link to The Vice Fund.

Investing heaven may be only a sin away.

The Dallas-based Vice Fund has left political correctness to others and boldly gone where other mutual funds fear to tread – Sin City. The Vice Fund, which celebrated its fourth anniversary on Aug. 30, invests in casino stocks and in companies that make liquor, tobacco and bombs. Given people’s proclivities to drink, smoke, gamble and blow each other up no matter what the economic climate, it should come as no surprise that the Vice Fund has been a consistent top performer. It has beaten the Standard & Poor’s 500 index in each of the past three years and is on track to do it again this year, with a 10 percent gallop so far in 2006, compared with a 5 percent gain for the S&P.

I have not invested in this fund, nor would I. Just makes me think of Matthew 7:13-14.

Although, I especially liked the quote by Abraham Lincoln on their website.
