I'd be interested in hearing more about the thought process behind cancelling a whole life insurance policy. I have one too and I often think the money could be put to work elsewhere, like in a brokerage account or IRA. Guess it would only bite me if I kick the bucket early, obviously...

On your question Todd, I've been using ETFs for the type of investing you describe. No commissions online and goal of generating the 'market return'. Primary downside with certain ETFs and mutual funds is you are buying the whole index, the good, bad, and everything in between.
