Joe said to queen Seems to me that you are saying that an investor can do fine as a long term buy and holder. No, Joe, I'm saying what I have chosen to do currently. And I agree with Brinker that when one approaches or reaches retirement age (even though we're not retired), one might want to take a more conservative approach to investing--not so much into individual equities any more, although of course the mutual funds in which one might invest would certainly be invested in individual companies.
