Complete with a big-screen TV, DVD, and sound system, the unit would cost $4,500. Matilda has over $15,000 in a money market fund, so she can easily afford to pay cash for the whole thing (the fund is currently paying 3 percent interest, and Matilda expects that yield to hold for the foreseeable future).
