I saw betterment and I like it as a starter but I am thinking more about investing in Vanguard.

I gotta do something. I have pretty substantial savings and about the same amount invested in my business. I went to make a transaction in the account where I have my savings recently and I almost cried how little the "PMA" account had earned me in interest so I opened it a couple years ago. So I am thinking of sinking a good chunk of it into something conservative like Vanguard and then a OK-sized slice into a pretty aggressive mutual fund.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
