I’m having a hard time pulling the trigger leaving my advisor even though I know she has cost me . At the same time, I probably would have left everything in a crappy savings account if I didn’t meet her. But this issue about regarding social security as a kind of investment account worth a certain amount has just occurred to me. I had retired about a year before lockdown and just before it hit, we met and I suggested maybe I should get a little more conservative since I was retired. But she knew I had a teacher’s pension and rental income that could have served as the “bond” portion of my portfolio and all the rest in high risk funds. I feel like I have missed out on the great returns of these last years, even though I am not hurting for money. I think she should have been a little more vociferous about saying I could afford more risk. But I have been listening to info on Vanguard and Fidelity. I had a vanguard account with nothing in it and recently moved some money into funds but now am leaning toward Fidelity for the rest of it and for moving my managed accounts to, so maybe procrastinating has been good. I am doing this all on my own. I do like having a live person to talk to but it’s costing!
Love a good investing video!! The secret to building wealth is time in the market not timing the market. You dont have to be an expert to start. Just get invested and you can always course correct if you find tweaks that suit you better.
Jack Bogles word of yesterday are as true today in western countries as they were in America years ago. I started indexing 10 years ago with zero. I have currently retired 12 month ago. 13years before I would have. Thanks Jack, and I have your book in my bedside drawer !!
Watching in my 40s and just starting investing I feel so behind! Everyone's talking about early investing and compounding. Is it even worth getting into the market this late?!

I hope I'm not too late to follow jack bogle footsteps, At 43, I’m so behind, I think this would be a good start for me catching up.
Still very applicable in today’s time. Just started investing for long term
Brilliant man
I started following Bogle's advice on investing in low-cost index funds vs. big mutual funds, and he was absolutely right.
I am new at it, and I look at it almost every day. That is insanity, I know!
Bro that is literally a my singing monsters name💀
I like money and learn how it works. It's like science that not everybody can understand.
Just get a Index fund

All hail the king!! Mr. Bogle, thank you for creating tools that the average person can utilize to transverse social classes. Rest in peace Sir.
Even when you buy the needle you can't hold it forever, you want that 10x can't wait for 100x 😂, so buy the haystack
Bond and CD yields have come up considerably since this interview…. I was lucky to build a ladder for the next 10 years at decent rates.
Jack is the wise Uncle I never had 😊❤😊❤😊❤
THANKS AGAIN AND RIP
Classic Bogle wisdom: “Time is your friend; impulse is your enemy.”
What should compound interest be good for as long as we got compound inflation?

Great conversation!
The best man that ever lived for the investor!
10 ways of saying the same thing: buy and hold a mix of index funds and bonds.
