I am a college student and I just opened a Roth IRA and a regular brokerage account i believe is what its called on ETrade. I'm just taking a little out of each pay check every 2 weeks, usually around 100 dollars during the school semester. Right now I only have 14 shares of Regions Bank for my Roth IRA. What do y'all suggest investing in shares?

Shelter shares outperform market



Like gold, it might be too late to catch that train.

Just opened a Schwab high-yield checking (free ATMs is all I want) and the forced-upon brokerage account.

Income and Gold. That's it. You'll take a beating anywhere else.

I think SCI may become attractive as boomers get older.

$.61 of the stock price is cash. Another $1 is in equities.
