5 Pieces of Advice From John Bogle - The New York Times

I hope this was not previously posted by someone else. I could not find any post on it and have been on a road trip not checking TOTV much.

Not too many like him -- perhaps Fidelity's Peter Lynch in his heyday. He, like Warren Buffet, had good common sense for the everyday investor.

RIP Jack.

I've followed Bogle's advice for over thirty years, and it has served me well, through thick and thin. He invented the S&P 500 index fund despite the disparaging "experts" at the time. I've stayed invested conservatively, mostly in low-cost index funds, and despite the occasional market correction, I'm very happy where I am right now financially. He was s great man who should have his statue outside 11 Wall Street. He is truly the person most responsible for the "little guy" being able to reach for the American dream.
