Investing Truths

Thanks to the Networth Advisory Group (fee-only financial planners) for this list of investing truisms which includes:
√ Time is the most important factor relating to an investment plan’s success.  There is no substitute for starting early and maintaining regular contributions to your investment accounts. 
√ Individuals saving 10% of their gross income are often on the bubble when it comes to meeting their retirement goals. People saving 15% are almost always on track.
√ Choosing the right allocation between stocks, bonds, and cash is the most important investment decision you can make.
√ Diversification among asset classes is the second most important factor leading to investment success.  Don’t put too many eggs in one basket. Remember, you can also be diversified from a tax perspective by having taxable accounts, tax-deferred accounts (IRAs and 401Ks), and tax-free accounts (Roth IRAs, Roth 401Ks).
