Everybody who I have talked to about this always mentions Vanguard, so I looked at their website yesterday and it made me feel much less intimidated. Some of their funds look very interesting. Rob and I have talked about it, and our inclination is to be a bit more aggressive with our investing than the average person our age (mid-40s) is, since we are effectively starting from scratch here. It seems worth gambling a bit more in order to play catch-up. We may mix some international funds in or something, at least.
A friend of mine has a financial advisor that has apparently done very well for her - I probably ought to get her to tell me who it is and go. We talked about it a bit a couple of months ago but at the time it seemed premature. Now it's not.
