How do you manage money?
joshu: Find someone who you can hire to help decide what to do (typically a CFA, I guess) -- someone who isn't paid by commissions on your decisions.The typical thing to do is allocate money to stocks (us, emerging, europe, etc) and bonds (govvies, soverign debt, corporate,) mostly via funds. You want to have a variety of uncorrelated assets.Algorithmic portfolio trading is /hard/. You're not building an automated trading system by yourself.
