Novice investor here, fully admit that. I'm 40% stocks. Most of that is in my main account that has a good slug of GOOG, AAPL, MSFT, even a speculative play Matterhorn MTTR. . I'm scared to look at that one for the last 2 weeks- this forum has taught me - finally - in life, not to panic sell like I always did for 20 years. So I've not looked.
But 20% of the stocks is in my get-off-my-lawn- account. Yes, the account nickname is "Lawn" and in that - I only put stuff that people sitting at Chipotle having extra guac- just don't want much to do with (yes, flame away). Double points if they dislike it - versus just being neutral.
Coke. Pepsi. McDonald's. Exxon, Chevron. GM Ford. Smaller local banks like Fifth Third, Regions Finance, Comerica. Bristol Meyers. PG. May add JPM soon.
This smaller account I'm not scared to see. It looks ok these days. I know I will miss opportunities here and there - oh well, better men than I can enjoy the money - with any luck, spend it on a Big Mac or shaving cream.
