What is Index Investing?
Buying funds that track the whole market instead of picking stocks
Full Explanation
Instead of trying to pick winning stocks, you buy index funds that own every stock in an index. You get the market's average return — which beats most active investors over time.
Real-World Example
Buy VOO or SPY to own all 500 S&P 500 companies at once.
Pro Tip
Studies consistently show index investing beats most professional fund managers long-term.
