Just compare several low-fee S&P ETFs, pick one to put your money into, and leave it alone to grow.

You'd <i>still</i> end up doubling your money over a decade, with your nest egg worth more than $2,100 by the end of 10 years with no additional contributions on your part.</p>\n<p>This return isn't 100% guaranteed since there have been 10-year spans that have underperformed even this average. But an S&P 500 index fund is the closest you can get to a sure thing because of its very long and very consistent track record. And the longer you leave your money alone, the greater the chances that you'll see those 10% historical average returns.</p>\n<p>Now, investing in an S&P fund isn't going to let you beat the market -- you'd have to invest in individual stocks to do that. But it's going to give you a very realistic chance of doubling your money over a decade while taking a limited amount of risk.

Just compare several low-fee S&P ETFs, pick one to put your money into, and leave it alone to grow. You'll be instantly diversified because you'll own a very small piece of 500 companies in a wide variety of industries. And since the companies in the S&P are some of America's largest and most trusted businesses, the risk of loss is minimal.\nWhy an S&P fund is all but guaranteed to double your money in a decade\nBuffett's advice doesn't just make investing easy and help you reduce the risk of losses. It also gives you a really good chance to double your money relatively quickly.\nThe S&P 500 has historically produced average annual returns of around 10%. This doesn't mean you're going to make 10% every year -- sometimes you'll make more, sometimes less. But that's an average over time.\nLet's say you invest $1,000 and you don't quite earn that 10%, but you average an annual return of 8%. You'd still end up doubling your money over a decade, with your nest egg worth more than $2,100 by the end of 10 years with no additional contributions on your part.\nThis return isn't 100% guaranteed since there have been 10-year spans that have underperformed even this average. But an S&P 500 index fund is the closest you can get to a sure thing because of its very long and very consistent track record. And the longer you leave your money alone, the greater the chances that you'll see those 10% historical average returns.\nNow, investing in an S&P fund isn't going to let you beat the market -- you'd have to invest in individual stocks to do that. But it's going to give you a very realistic chance of doubling your money over a decade while taking a limited amount of risk. That's what makes it such a great Warren Buffett recommendation.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":195,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
