“Investing is an index fund provided by any one of several major financial houses is investing in America and over the long haul is risk free. Betting on America is a safe bet.”

Hi bert.

You might want to be cautious with the term ‘risk-free’, especially when it pertains to equities. But I agree - dollar cost average and over several years/decades the person should be fine.

And as one economist coined “in the long term we’re all dead.”

You are of course correct.

It boils down to faith in America. Is that faith risk free?
