Mutual funds are a great investment to add to your portfolio. I also agree with the comments that you are able to save some money and invest it if you put your mind to it. The return that you could earn will be worth it.

A little bit of money adds up over a realatively short period of time. I invest $25 every two weeks in my retirement fund.

I think many (if not most) people can find ways to find $6 a week, by not eating out or buying unnecessary items....and that $24 at the end of the month can go towards an investment.

Another tip is to hire a financial advisor you trust, who isn't too busy to review your portfolio regularly and give you financial advice. My problem is that I have no interest in investing money! Even looking at my mutual funds every 3 months is proving to be tedious; I just don't do it. But, I know it's a mistake to expect my financial advisor or my husband to be responsible for my mutual funds.....I need to be more financially responsible. Anyway, thanks for your comment -- it's prompted me to revisit my portfolio today!
