I have to fill out my 401K Salary deferment form for work. I guess it would be a good idea to start this. But anyway, I am clueless and I have no idea what the best way would be to invest. Below are the various funds they have that I have to divide my salary defer to by percentage.
What percentages should I put next to these? Should all get a piece? One? A few? I don't much expect to be around to collect any of this shit but you never know.
