grrrdis: I am a single 27-year-old attorney with no children, and would appreciate any and all advice regarding my Roth IRA.
My financial planner opened a Roth IRA on my behalf in November 2007. Based upon his advice, I invested $4,000 equally in Class B shares of two (2) mutual funds: 1) American Funds Capital World Growth and Income Fund (CWGIX), and 2) American Funds New Economy Fund (ANEFX).
At 27, I would consider the following portfolio:
CWGIX - 20%
ANCFX - 25%
AGTHX - 25%
NEWFX - 15%
SMCWX - 15%
