Title: Asking for Mustachian Recommendation
Post by: vuedoolor on November 09, 2017, 12:10:33 PM

New to investing but where can I get more info on the type of accounts to hold assets? Examples of those accounts, the benefits and drawbacks of those accounts, in which account will it make the most sense to hold x type(s) of assets.

Also a cheat sheet guide to types of assets, what they are, how they work with the parent class sub classes of each asset..

Bond > municipal bond
and whatever else that falls under bonds.

I guess I'm in search of a good book for beginners and a  mind map for visualization would be nice. I may have to create my own mind map once I'm able to understand all these jargon.

Sorry if I'm asking too much questions

Maybe I'll just get a book and come back later when I have a better understanding. Gotta learn how to crawl before I can walk.
