Where Do you Go for Financial Advice?
Furthermore, participants who are intimidated by the process of having to make that investment choice may very well avoid that most critical first step—deciding to save in the first place. In this month's Know How, we try to help participants get past that initial stumbling block with a simple age-based estimation for stocks versus bonds. It is no substitute for a skilled investment professional's assessment of funds available in conjunction with a sophisticated risk tolerance questionnaire.

As always, we look forward to your comments and feedback.
