Should I make a lump-sum contribution to my mutual fund account or take advantage of dollar-cost averaging?
August 2nd, 2010
I received some inheritance money that I’d like to invest for retirement. I plan to open a mutual fund account with Vanguard and begin investing in index funds. Should I invest the entire lump sum at once or keep it in a high-yield money market account and fund the mutual fund account monthly to take advantage of dollar-cost averaging?
Assume I have no bad debt, have already established an emergency fund, am contributing to a 401(k), and am funding a Roth IRA (also with Vanguard) to the annual max.
