Putting some away -- religiously... sticking with it - that's what works. Buying stuff you can believe in long term helps you stick with it -- getting dividends so you can actually see "free money" being added to your pile - that helps get you thru the down markets -- so that you'll still be invested when it turns around and heads back up. Simple to talk about -- hard to believe in... until you're in a couple years and see that by golly it really does work.
