I’m taking more of ucgal’s indirect advice in what she posted awhile ago.. Put stuff into indexes and forget about it until I really need it…

At least that’s what I’ve been doing partly…That and holding onto some cash in case any any short sales goes my way…[/quote]

Nice! Haven’t caught up with the forum lately… ucgal’s advice definitely sounds good.

I started late in the stock market (post dot com) and after some time at Ameritrade, eventually found buyandhold – a perfect combination for my lazy investing style 🙂 Most importantly I couldn’t go wrong with the limited trading features, and yet maintaining some flexibility to experiment in the market. For most part followed zacks focus list (~ 50 stocks) to help find sectors, and periodic research to balance the roth account.
