Can You Retire a Millionaire With ETFs Alone?
It's one of the toughest questions investors must ask themselves over and over again: Do I accept higher risks for the bigger rewards that only individual stocks can offer, or do I seek the safety in numbers with mutual funds or exchange-traded funds, knowing that could crimp my overall return?
Plenty of people take the former route, and understandably so. Much of the financial-media machine makes it easy to fall in love with individual stocks by virtue of touting high-potential stock stories. ETFs and mutual funds, on the other hand, neither make for great news nor bring massive gains to the table.
