Think you are too young or too old to invest for retirement?

As bad as stock market returns were in the past decade its helps to know that you CAN make a positive influence on your retirement investment by taking a few easy steps and staying the course. 

See this interesting New York Times article:  Your Money - For Steady Savers, It Was Hardly a Lost Decade - NYTimes.com  

What I learned:

1. Diversify.  Stocks and Bonds
2. Unless you are better than 99% of the public at choosing stocks or bond funds use Index Funds
3. Invest regularly
4. Rebalance annually

4 steps to a secure retirement?
