The Plan

My plan looks like this:

Start Early: I won't get anywhere if I don't gain the benefits of compound interest.

Invest Often: I will transfer funds from my savings accounts to my investment accounts every two weeks.

Buy and Hold: I can't afford broker commissions for switching stocks around, so I'll be using a buy and hold strategy to try and pick winners and then hold on to them.

Diversify: I'll try and hold stocks and bonds from a variety of industry sectors to try and mitigate losses in any one area.
