I'm 34 and wouldn't mind going on the risky side. I'm not investment savvy, just looking to put money in, add to it and watch it grow. They have a fund called a Target 2035 that I'm interested in, any comments on it?

-Thanks in advance...
Get thyself to Amazon..buy and read "The little book of common sense investing" It is written by John C. Bogle, the founder of Vanguard.

The target funds by vanguard are good funds...but then, so is their total stock market index fund, which MAY fit your needs better.

Buy the book..buy the book...buy the book. Oh...buy the book! We have been giving it to friends who are "not investment savvy" like you. Read this book, and you'll be more savvy. It is written by one of the "Gods" of the investment world.
