As an investor in a mutual fund, you become a shareholder in a large portfolio of stocks, bonds and/or money market securities (or some combination of them). Investing in stocks and bonds can be a good way to achieve long-term capital growth, but the market risk can be substantial. Consider subscribing to financial magazine or taking a course to learn more about these options.
Although investments in mutual funds, stocks and bonds provide no current tax benefit, qualified dividends and capital gain distributions are taxed at a maximum rate of 15% and your other income is taxed at a maximum rate of 35%.
