BB&T Corporation (BBT), Citigroup Inc. (C): The Simple Solution for Busy Investors

As a 20-something who is new to the game of managing my own money and making investments for my future with intent (as opposed to passively accepting whatever 401(k) options my employer offers me), I am often overwhelmed not only by the investment choices, but by the different ways of managing them. If I’m honest with myself, I’m much more likely to check in on my investments and keep them up-to-date if I only have to log into one account to do so.

So for me, simpler may truly be better. But these choices are often very personal decisions, and given people’s varying interests, time available, and industry knowledge, my choice might not be at all similar to yours. And that, fellow Fools, is what makes us motley.
