In your 401k, the money sits in a money market account until you make investment decisions. The money market account will, over time, just keep things safe and in place. As for an investment, you would do well to put it all in the S&P500 Index Fund, if they have it, and just forget it. You may also need to make a choice that says each monthly contribution should go to the S&P500 Index Fund. The S&P500 Index has, with dividends and market value, an average annual return of 10% over the last 30 years. I doubt very much that any other choice you have can show that good a record.

The fund represents 500 of the better corporations in America, so you would be fully diversified in just about every business you can think of. You would own railroads, trucking, banks, drug companies, insurance, computers, food, oil, housing, manufacturing, retail stores, mining, aircraft, airlines, glass, paint, hotels, resorts,auto parts,clothing, cosmetics, health care, utilities and on and on. You cannot get any more diversified than that. Again, be sure they know you want contributions to go straight to the S&P500 Index Fund. Make some choices about life style and contribute as much of your paycheck as you can. Over time, this is a good choice and a safe bet for a nice retirement.

Among the companies you would own in the S&P500 fund are Google, Microsoft, Pennys, Radio Shack, Sara Lee, Southwest Airlines, Time Warner, Walt Disney and Wells Fargo. Do a web search on S&P500 companies list for all of them.

Corruption and a complete lack of infrastructure.

China has a lot less corruption and although their infrastructure isn’t great, they have much better infrastructure.

Lets not kid ourselves though… India is the second fastest growing economy in the world…

As for democracy… I wouldn’t say it’s a plus on its own. One party states can work just fine, though democracy is always best in the long run.

A third reason could be:

India was more of a tech sector economy…. Everything was put into getting jobs in the Tech sector. They tried to skip manufacturing

Well, China started off with a manufacturing base and is now moving to the technology sector.

Reality is in India, there are not enough jobs for the people, they didn’t start with manufacturing like China so they are in the process of revisiting manufacturing before moving on to technology.

It depends on whether they are private or with a health service such as the NHS. Privately it is often more. For example I charge £30 per hour for a consultational service. I charge more when it comes to scientific dietary analysis where their vitamins, minerals, etc are calculated.

Have you tried using GPT (Get-Paid-To) sites online? You won’t earn millions, but it should help you earn a little extra spending money. If you put a little time into it, you can easily earn an extra $50 per week.

One of my favorite new sites is www.dollapal.com. It’s pretty simple. You just put in your PayPal email address on the first page, click “Take a Survey” and follow the instructions. They pay directly to that PayPal account once you complete the offer.

I’ve made well over $1,000 this year using these sites and anyone that tells you that they are not legitimate have not tried them for themselves.

If you don’t like www.dollapal.com, try visiting www.gptsitelist.com for an extensive list of GPT sites.

It’s actually a little surprising that your employer isn’t providing you with more answers. Have you asked him/her? Expressed an interest in learning more? Not only for your own benefit, but it may help you with your career in that office too.

Another place for assistance may be your own bank. Many banks have financial advisors that help their customers gain a better understanding of the programs they offer. (Granted, they’ll probably be geared toward making you a client – but if you explain how you’re looking for information before making any commitment, they’re usually pretty accomodating.)

The last alternative, which may cost you a little money, is to check your local community college or continuing education programs. Many local high schools and such will offer evening (or weekend) seminars that offer basic instruction. (Sometimes these are partially funded by local branches of various financial institutions – so be on the look out if they try to push their products.)

If none of those are options, take a look online. Some companies like Fidelity or Edward Jones may have “tutorial” sections on their website that could help give you some basic information.

Good Luck!

Hello Bob,
I have used and demoed NaviPlan, MasterPlan, Moneytree, Financial profiles and a few other Retirement Planning software packages They each have their strengths and weaknesses. Some do actual income tax analysis and year by year cashflow, some are simply goal based and not really appropriate for Fee only planning. And they all will cost you more than $299 and require annual renewals. You might find more info at the AICPA or FPA websites

Hope this helps.

Summary of my response: it’s a good place to start, and you won’t be married to the account. If you decide to seek greener pastures later, then you can rollover the retirement account into your newer better account. Just make sure to ask about account closure fees (which are typically $25 to $50 due to their paperwork involved in rolling out your account and closing it).

More details: The heart of your question has to do with the end where you are worred that “it’s not always the best idea to do retirement planning through a bank because it’s not their real specialty.” Getting into the details of your concern, there are two areas of investigation in terms of retirement account suitability:
1) Housekeeping: does the company know what its doing (in terms of keeping the paperwork together), and is the your account access (such as online) to your liking.
2) Does the retirement custodian offer the type of investment options that are to your liking.

Regarding ING, as a retirement account custodian, I am sure that they are fine on point one, and that they are probably fine on point two as well. I have a retirement account through ING which allows a selection of mutual funds.

Where banks typically have a weakness is in step two, as banks typically offer only savings accounts, money market accounts, and CDs as “investment” options through a retirement account. For people who want to invest in things like mutual funds, banks are indeed too limiting.

Without knowing your details, I’d still be inclined to say that ING is a good place for you to start.

Some mutual funds will allow you to avoid the “minimum” balance if you commit to a monthly deposit. I can’t speak to all the funds that allow this, but talk with the various brokerage houses (i.e. Fidelity, Vangaurd, AIM, just to name a few)

The publication did not change things , the economies of the world and England went on as before. They tried to export more than the imported and accumulate Gold and Adam Smith argued that the “Wealth of Nations” was not gold, but its ability to produce. However his book convinced some people and provided arguments they used to change England’s policies but it was not until 1846 that they remove their tariff on “corn” and moved toward free trade but the US kept their high tariffs to protect their industry for another 50 years. However US land owners always favored free trade and tariff were part of the reasons the south want to leave the union.

“The Corn Laws were import tariffs designed to protect corn (grain) prices in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland against competition from less expensive foreign imports between 1815 and 1846.[1] The tariffs were introduced by the Importation Act 1815 (55 Geo. 3 c. 26) and repealed by the Importation Act 1846 (9 & 10 Vict. C. 22). These laws are often viewed as examples of British mercantilism,[2] and their abolition marked a significant step towards free trade. The Corn Laws enhanced the profits and political power associated with land ownership.”

First you have to define how the ‘nation’s wealth’ should be calculated. All property that is privately owned? And how do you calculate the valu of government owned land and property?

The next thing you need to do is define ‘investor.’ Is somebody with a 401k an investor? (Remember that the bulk of “investors” are retirement plans, pension funds, etc.)

This is an easy question. Just go to this webpage and read the “wealth of nations” section.
