The requirement is only $50,000 if you have a 10 year history in a particular fund. This is a long time to wait once you set one up, but if you're like me and started a Roth IRA when you were 18 (or younger), you will reach this while you are still fairly young. The only problem for me is I've moved my money into a different account since then so I probably don't qualify yet.

Wow, those are cheap MERs for index funds. I was going to suggest switching to the ETF versions but there really isn't any point (as you probably already figured out!).

That's really a good information. One can invest in various way, but to make a profit from the investment is unpredictable. So we usually take help of financial advisor to to make our money worth. Even though we cannot say that a financial advisor is right and we won't go through any loss. I personally get confused when it comes to investing money.

You've rally done a smart work. This information will surely help many of us like me to invest in a right direction. Thanks for sharing this.

FMF, what are your thoughts on the Vanguard Inflation Protected Securities Index compared to the Total Bond Market Index? Do they accomplish the same investing goal? Is one to be preferred? I'd be interested in your thoughts!

Christian --

I don't know enough about it to comment. Sorry.

Do you hold these index funds within a personal stock account, like tradeking, or within some other investment account, such as 401k? I ask because I found a $15 commission to purchase index/mutual funds from TradeKing. Is that fee appropriate? What type of account will I find cheaper commissions (I can make purchases within my employment Fidelity 401k)?

Kelly --

There are no commissions to purchase from Vanguard. Mutual fund fees cover everything.

FYI, Admiral shares dropped to $10k on all the index funds. I love Vanguard.
