Dear sitetest -

Good news. I didn't listen to them. They wanted us to put all our pension funds into bonds. I put the maximum they would allow - 75% - into equity funds. They got very upset. They knew very little about investing.

Dear ladyjane,

Well that's very good news indeed! ;-)

Anyone who has regularly participated in the stock market over the last few decades has had a wonderful opportunity to grow rich slowly.

Especially those who tried to be the least tricky or clever. Just regularly invest in good, solid blue chips or index mutual funds or similar investments, re-balance once a year, and ignore the market in the meanwhile.
