To all who think that they are so much smarter then the Fools, how many books have you published and how many web sites do you produce? Huh? Last time I checked, Wade Cook had written 30 books while Warren Buffett hadn't written any! According to you, that should mean something! :-) Or perhaps more poignantly, how many original ideas do you have? How about the following? New investors should try to build a portfolio with these funds (this is a 80/20 stock/bond portfolio): 20% -- Vanguard Short-Term US Treasury Index Fund 20% -- Acorn International Fund 10% -- Vanguard Total International Fund 10% -- Vanguard Index 500 Fund 10% -- Vanguard Small Cap Index 10% -- O'Shaughnessy Cornerstone Value Fund 10% -- O'Shaughnessy Cornerstone Growth Fund 10% -- Payden & Rygel European Growth & Income or "Euro Dogs" Fund The average expense ratio works out to about 0.75%, which is pretty good. Once they have about $30,000 invested in the above (which should take 3 to 5 years for most of us), they should look for individual stocks. During that time, they can learn things on their own (and also possibly watch a few stocks getting decimated in the market :-)). Dipy.
