Most of us know that investing as much as possible, as often as possible and leaving it invested as long as possible is the ONLY secret to good investing.

If you have no clue about investing and you come from a family that has never invested, it is sensible to get an advisor. Get an advisor who has 10-12 years of experience at least.
