FAQ Answers

When will the market recover?

There are too many fluctuating variables to be able to provide a definite answer. But if you are following a well-developed strategic investing plan for a diversified portfolio, you will be able to ride out any major changes in the market without too much concern. Always take a long-term perspective and don't pay attention to media opinion.

When should I start investing?

As soon as you have set aside enough in savings to meet your emergency funds needs, it is important to follow your well-developed strategic investing plan. Always take a long-term perspective, and remember to rebalance your portfolio periodically.

What's the best place to invest now?

Unless you are fully funded with all of your daily, emergency, and retirement needs met, never look for the next "hot" investment. Instead take the time to learn the basic principles of investing, develop a strategic investment plan, take a long-term perspective, and rebalance your portfolio periodically.

Should I trust my financial advisor?

Always research your advisor's background (there are several links available on this site under "Helful Sites"). Pay attention to costs; fees may be worth paying, but only if the investment is part of your strategic investment plan.
