<prompt> Human: Say Ive got 100-500 a month to invest for a long term future. Is there where I should be putting it?If this question is easily answered in another post then please link me to it, I could not find a satisfactory answer with search. thanks!  <response>: Read up on Jack Bogle, the founder of Vanguard. People refer to him as Saint Jack. He was a visionary in the investment industry and a pioneer of index funds and low-cost investing. He set up Vanguard as a not-for-profit that returns profits to its customers. Hes done more to help the individual investor than any other person I can think of. Nowadays everyone knows index funds are a smart investment, but back in his day, he was mocked for the idea.
