That was a great article. I think i may send it to a few friends that need a little help with this sort of stuff.
And yeah, as for the "get rich quick" stocks.. fuggettaboutit. Atleast, not for me. I've got way to far to go/catch up to risk any big losses. Slow and steady will win the race for me. Hopefully.
On a side note, I've convinced our Owner and Accountant to look into letting us with 401ks to establish a PBA to allow us to invest our 401ks in individual stocks rather than mutual funds. They haven't made any moves yet. But just the fact their "Looking into it" helps.... Hopefully it goes through. (Small company, about 25 employees). I've held off (yet again) restructuring my 401k after hearing that. As i don't want to take any penalties to move it if it does go thru.
