    I've put 100% into the L 2040. Watching the S&P, it's been on an upward trend, so definitely no -10% correction there. Do I wait for a correction before buying 2050 because each share will be cheaper, and thus I'll be able to get more shares that equals profit when the market improves?

    I was hired in 2007 fresh out of university, but with an engineering degree and absolutely no knowledge on finances or money management. Thus, I put 5% of my income all into G, because they said it was safe. Fast forward to today and I'm a newly married man, and suddenly, the money matters so...
