I'm 31 married with 5 kids something high risk or low risk at this point? I'm gonna have railroad retirement so not too worried about it as retirement but something for the kids..


Almost all of my retirement is 60% in stock index funds and 40% in treasuries, re-balanced periodically. I have two retirement accounts, each has 1 stock index fund and 1 treasury index fund. Its simple.

I used to have my retirement in mutual funds manages by a "financial advisor" then I noticed they lost alot more than the general market and gained a lot less. Screw 'em. Index funds all the way.

So you don't have someone helping you anymore, you are just doing it on your own? How do you get started in that and what did you use as a research tool to pick the ones you invested in?
