[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure, Vanguard firm can go belly up, but your index mutual fund will not. Vanguard firm only manages fund for you unless they steal your money from the index fund. My favor index fund is Vanguard Total Market. It has more companies than S&P 500. As a result, it has lower risk than S & P 500. However, it performs better than S & P 500 lately. You get the best of both world, low risk with high performance.[/quote] when i was young (and thankfully did not have much money to play with), i got into picking stocks for a couple years. that's out of my system and i just invest in vanguard funds now (well, other than my 401k, which offers relatively sucky options compared to vanguard). about half in a target retirement fund, and i have a couple of their aggressive funds that have good track records, just for kicks. autopay every month, and i don't waste any of my time thinking about that shit.
