[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We don't use one. We read Bogle's book, read Bogleheads online, and put our savings and investments in low cost stock index funds. [/quote] What type of index funds? S&P 500? International large cap?[/quote] We always avoid international to avoid exchange rate risks. Most funds are in low-cost S&P500 index. A little in Extended Market Index Fund. We use Vanguard when we have a choice, because they have consistently low fees. 401(k) uses Fidelity, so that money is in Fidelity's S&P500 index fund. Usually this also is low cost, but watch out for the 401(k) fees. Also, we do not try to "time" the market. We don't trade funds; we mostly avoid watching their value week to week. We just let things compound. (For any Feds reading, the TSP C-fund is a very low cost S&P500 index fund.)[/quote]
