[quote=Anonymous]Also, please read the bogleheads forums for tons of great advice. Mainly, try and avoid the people who are always buying and selling and trading stocks like a game. Your general strategy should be to buy and hold stocks (not sell them) and accumulate wealth over a long period of time, generally not looking at the market's ups and downs. Over the long run (20-30+ years) the total stock market has about a 7% return. In your 50s and 60s, you can gradually convert some of your portfolio from stocks to bonds, but the people who are watching the stock market like hawks and freaking out all the time are like gamblers, not investors.[/quote]
