Wow, I was trying to be a smart-ass like my buddy, Voltaire. Is the money yours, his or ours (being married, I suspect ours). A compromise is in order. I like AOL, that is where I would stay. The logical thing was already suggested--compromise and let him have certain positions and you retain yours. Fortunately, my wife has no real interest in investments except the bottom line. I do all of our investing in IRAs, Keogh, and taxable account. If you have similar accounts let him do his IRA and you do yours. Money is such a tough topic and the most argued about between spouses. Reach a compromise before it gets serious. I don't like the idea of "I told you so" should you win the best stock picker award in your house. Next time you might not be so fortunate.

Better watch out, I was told that no more was to be said on that topic by Brian K Crawford (Post 1343). Please look at Post #1339, that is what I found on the Vanguard site as a definition of an index fund.
