An exploration of Mutual Fund Investing, tracking hypothetical portfolios and comparing Managed Funds, Index Funds and ETFs and other random thoughts about saving, investing, and managing money.

Fund of the Week: TLT iShares Barclays 20+ Year Treas Bond
TLT iShares Barclays 20+ Year Treas Bond gained 8.8% last week. Real Estate had a strong week. The rest of the top ten funds from my mutual fund experiment were from a variety of categories.
The worst performing fund was BRSIX Bridgeway Ultra-Small Company Market, which lost 6.54%. The other funds in the botom 10 were also from a variety of categories.
I hail from the South, lived out West, and currently call the Northeast home. I studied philosophy in school (Derrida, the ancient Greeks), was a musician for a while (Percussion), and work in higher education, managing technology projects.
I blog about saving, investing and managing money because I enjoy it- both doing it and writing about it!
