Quotation

You have two choices. Either manage your own investments or find a

financial adviser who will work with you. Tell him or her that you want to invest in index finds and listen to his suggestions. If he fails to offer you any index funds after you have told him that you want index funds, then he isn’t being starightforward. Find another adviser. Mac Barnes
