I have about $20,000 to play around with and I do not need this money to stick away in a 401K or an IRA as I already put money in there. I would like to put this money away in a Vanguard fund and let it sit for 15/20 years and then have some fun with the money. What would be the best funds for tucking this money away? And the most efficent for tax purposes?
Thanks in advance for your help!

The Federal Reserve is a private corporation. Those that shorted Hedge Funds were doing so because they saw that these funds were making bad decisions. The Fed cut was an artificial intervention that hurt those that had shorted. Do those investors have grounds to sue the Federal Reserve for damages?

I learned even mutual funds are taxed - so I'm seeking any investment opportunities or ways or chances where my money is save and yet can sort of avoid tax or at least get the most reduced tax on my investments.

What gives our money the value it carries. I mean how the currency is determined to carry a certain value depending on countries.

my question is analogous to these analogy :::

A country that has too many poor people can print more money and more people will have more money. why it is not practiced

Why different country have different value for their currency . how this is fixed or determined

What does it mean when it is said that the value of the money for a country is reflected by that countries reserve bank deposit which can also be gold.

well how else our currencies VALUE is measured , valued and set.

when to buy based on market situations. I have noticed that short sales data might be useful, but where would I get accurate data on such? I think I want outsider short sales data. But what other data would be useful to make my determination? Dow Jones 200 day, 50 day and 13 day moving averages? If nobody answers, I guess I have to do my own testing.
What I really need is inside the Fed's head!

The Dow opened in 1896 at $40 and was $1000 in 1972. That is exactly inflation. The Dollar decreased to 1/25 of its 1896 value. That means, until 1972, the Dow merely kept par with inflation.
The original dow comprised of only 12 stocks. Adjusted for that, the picture looks even more desolutionary. If you invested money in the Dow in 1896, you would have in 1972 less money, then you put in.
Only under Clinton, the Dow hauled from 2700 to 10,500 by the end of his tenure (1993 to 2000).
Since Bush (2000) the Dow has not kept up with inflation again, similar like it didn't the first 78 years.
Without the 401's in Mutual Funds, the Dow would most likely be at 3000 today.
My question is, where does the myth come from, that investing in stocks or funds will increase your wealth over the long run?
Or is that a marketing lie to cash in on us stupid sheep?

I am 23 years old and my salary is $50,000.
My employer matches dollar for dollar up to 5%.
I am risk tolerant.

I am leaning towards this way of allocate my investments:
Large Cap Value Index Fund (Russell 1000 Value): 20%
S&P 500 Index Fund (S&P 500): 55%
Small Cap Index Fund (RUSSELL 2000): 15%
International Large Cap Index Fund (MSCI EAFE): 10%

These are the other funds I can allocate to:
Short-Term Fixed Income Fund
Stable Value Fund
Government Inflation-Protected Bond Fund
Core Bond Fund
Intermediate Bond Fund
High Yield Bond Fund
Large Cap Value Fund
Growth and Income Fund
Large Cap Growth Index Fund
Large Cap Growth Fund
Mid Cap Value Fund
Mid Cap Growth Fund
Small Cap Core Fund
Small Cap Blend Fund
International Large Cap Value Fund
International Large Cap Core Fund
International Small Cap Fund

Should I diversify the portfolio more? I want to stay completely away from bonds however...

Thanks for all of your help!

It's for my economics class, and I will use $10,000 fake dollars and buy shares from at least three companies. Then I will follow them along and will see how much money I either made or lost.
