Stock investing doesn't need to be overly complicated. By buying and holding a low-cost fund that tracks the S&P 500 , and subsequently reinvesting the dividends, investors would have grown their money by a healthy 211% over the past 10 years. Keeping with this theme, Warren Buffett has often advocated for lay investors to put up to 90% of their capital into the Vanguard 500 Index Fund (NYSEMKT: VOO) and the remaining 10% into short-term government bonds.
