My son-in-law in Austin is in finance.
Quantitative Researcher w/ 3 college degrees.  (what a geek).
He likes;
1.  A simple acc. w/ Charles Schwab.  This lets you trade stocks, bonds,
    & mutual funds.   And it is a fun game!!
2.  Mutual Funds......conservative mutual funds.  Look for 5%-10% SAFE returns.
     Diversification is mandatory.    Maybe a doz. different funds? 
3.  Max-out your Company 401k retirement plan.... w/ co. matching funds.
4.  Start a IRA Acc. on the side that equals your 401k plan.   
5.  Be conservative.......these are dangerous times.


My father taught me to be a money-saver.
He said, "you will never regret being frugal & saving money. 
Just the opposite.  You will be proud of yourself".   And he was right.
Here is a book that helped me many years ago.
