Are these a similar concept to a mutual or SPY fund? I agree with you guys. I'm working with a financial advisor now to just ensure the main investments outside 401K are done appropriately. It is VERY hard to win picking individual stocks, particularly in the OTC, but really anywhere. I guess the big ones like Apple, Nvidia, and so forth will do well over time, but we're in those in our 401K anyways. It feels repetitive, but that seems to be the only way to ensure growth with individual picks.
