put money in investments

I’m pretty young to have started a “Retirement” account, but I really like the idea of the money having lots of time to grow. And it’s more remote than my savings account, so it’s money I know I’ll have socked away for the far off future.

opened a mutual fund account. Still haven’t cashed out the company stock, but a) need to make sure i don’t acccidentally get dumped from the program and b) price is down.

my employee stock plan stock has reached the level where I’ve been saying for years that I will sell. So, I need to:

*sell the shares
*BUT NOT sell the shares from the current period because that will stop me buying cheapass company stock
*figure out how to buy into a mutual fund
*buy into a mutual fund

sounds easy? we’ll see if I actually manage any of it…
