Sometimes you read this stuff and you look in the mirror and start to think you're doing something wrong because you don't have it all going on! WRONG... but it is educational and well worth the read.

I am 27 and am trying to figure out how to invest my money, since it is not making anything setting in a savings account. I got in on this thread late (page 68) so i am trying to catch up. I have in the range of 10-15,000 that i would be willing to "tie up" in investments. The rest i need to keep access to for impending life events (i.e. baby due the end of the month, and new house in the next 1-2 yrs.)
There is alot of good advice here and i look up to those that have been successful.
These is a great thread. Hope I can catch up one day.
