[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Plz OP - I'm trying to be kind here but if you don't know what a low-cost index broad market fund is then you have zero business buying stock. That is a risky venture, best left for institutional investors, not Harriet Homemaker. Get online with Vanguard or Fidelity. Research their funds. Funds are basically a bucket of stocks manage by the company and not by you.[/quote] OP, no offense taken but ya gotta start somewhere, no? [/quote] Yes, and as PP pointed out, that somewhere is buying a fund from vanguard or fidelity (I would go with V, because their expenses are very low). That somewhere is not buying individual stocks. You might as well go to the casino and play blackjack (quite honestly, that also goes for many people who "know what they're doing," which is why I will probably never actively buy stocks and stick to index funds - nearly impossible to beat the market over a 30-year period.).
