Investing is not nearly as difficult as it looks. Successful investing involves doing a few things right and avoiding serious mistakes.

About Bogleheads®

We are a community of followers who believe in the teachings of John Bogle, the founder of the Vanguard Group. We follow his simple investing philosophies:

Invest Early & Often

Use Index funds

Keep Costs Low

Never Time the Market

Stay the Course

Minimize Taxes

Take the mystery out of investing. You can do it.

We won’t sell you anything or ask for you to sign up for anything. We are a community of volunteers who enjoy helping others to learn about investing and finance. You don’t need an MBA in Finance to plan for your future.

Bogleheads® are dedicated to helping people begin or improve their investing by applying our investing principles.

3-Fund Portfolio

Your investment portfolio does not need to be complicated with multiple funds. Keep it simple.

Take Care Not to Live Beyond Your Needs

Saving for the future takes pre-planning and wise spending.

Have a Plan

Stick to your plan regardless of market conditions.

Ask Questions

There's plenty of resources on the Bogleheads® website.
