There are markets like Bonds for example where the distant contracts normally 
sell at a discount so you get paid to hold them for the long term.  Sometimes 
the physical commodities will invert during periods of short supply and you 
can buy the distant contracts cheaper than the nearby (like crude oil right 
now).
