I am more than happy with my 23.8% ROR for 2007. Anyone do better? Anyone do ALOT worse?

I am still relatively young, and had most of the money in aggressive stocks. I know this can be dangerous, but I have a lot of time to recover in case the market really took a dump!

9.2%. I have to be relatively conservative. I'm not a market timer, but I'm seriously considering moving a good part of my 401k to bond funds for this year. I just don't see good things happening for the market in general. Companies which export a lot will do well though.

Don't have one. I'm thinking of opening a Roth IRA before I file my taxes.

Strange... mine is exactly 17.33%.
We might have ours in the same fund...

December was not kind to me (and January looks worse).

Yeah, the nerve of them not doing it for free!

3% is very high. As a comparison, most Vanguard mutual funds are under 0.5%.
