Limebird asked:

Hi folks. Please help with advise. I have a portfolo of 3 mutual funds in a Traditional IRA and another Roth IRA with 3 similar funds. All are Agressive Growth funds, with a small amount in a balenced fund. I am 34, have about 3 years to go. Total assets is about 60K. I have a hands off advisor who is not watching my stuff. What are the best moves I should make? Out of mutual funds to SP500 Index funds, Overseas funds?, What about EFTs, or SPYdrs? Bonds vs Bond funds? What % weighting should it be if i move? Do I do this myself or get another advisor? Is the total value too small to have any choices? What about induvidual stocks? Comments please.
Sorry 30 years to go till retirement.

      Find some example portfolios based on your age and DIVERSIFY. You definitely don’t want to put all your eggs in one basket, especially these days.
