From The little book of common sense investing by John Bogle.

"Thus, the recent era not only has failed to erode, but has nicely enhanced the lifetime record of the world’s first index fund—now known as Vanguard 500 Index Fund. Let me be specific: at a dinner on September 20, 2006, celebrating the 30th anniversary of the fund’s initial public offering, the counsel for the fund’s underwriters reported that he had purchased 1,000 shares at the original offering price of $15.00 per share—a $15,000 investment. He proudly announced that the value of his holding that evening (including shares acquired through reinvesting the fund’s dividends and distributions over the years) was $461,771. "

Site looks good. But cant play around with it.

Just tried creating a sample test site. The test site is up but I am not able to login to the account.

Re:Ask HN: What all things can a developer on H4 visa do? on Wednesday March 06, 2013 @03:00PM (#5333418)
If you are looking forward to obtaining an H1B.....The start date for filing new H1-B visa is April 1st, 2013. And normally the quota of 65k is reached very quickly. So you have between now and Apri1 1st to find a sponsor. Reach out to companies to see if they are willing to sponsor a new H1B.
