Some ER members provided some good advice in another thread, I think it's about done now, see: Hi, New & wanting to retire early
Wanted to switch topics: Has Investing Become Harder?
My Background: BA, Finance, MBA, Int'l Fin. There's a catch though, I graduated in 1986. I've followed it finance, economics, etc., ever since. But don't work in the financial industry.
Question please: Can ER's get a decent return at low risk somewhere? Something more than 1% saving account. How about buy the markets with EFT's? Annuities while appealing have custodial risk which concerns me.
