Maroon here (a.k.a. newb). Why isn't financial planning as simple as opening a passbook savings account? I've been a faithful saver for decades. Also maxed out my 401K contributions and took advantage of employer matching, etc. And I've done the research into investments of all sorts - stocks, bonds, metals, RE, annuities, etc. Done all sorts of reading on this (started with the Idiot's Guides / For Dummies books) and I just can't grasp it. I have little patience for screening investments, and even less for being sold by financial planners or advisors. Where's the lazy (wo)man's guide to a secure and safe retirement? Help!
