Normal people retire at 65 but that doesn’t mean that you should. I aspire to retire at least 20 years before then and you should too. It would be nice if I came up with a million dollar idea or won the lottery but I’m not going to count on it. Slow and steady wins the race.
Ideally the most work you should have to do is open your account at a brokerage firm like Ameritrade, eTrade, Charles Schwab, etc… or Betterment and transfer your money slowly over time. The only difference between the brokerage firms is that you’ll actually have to place a trade into the S&P 500 (.INX), NASDAQ (.IXIC), or Dow Jones (.DJI).
Good luck, and remember, every day you don’t put your money in the fast lane is an extra day you have to show up at the office.
