In reply to Sharon Duncantell. Hi Sharon - If you're on disability, it's kind of like retiring early, and even entitles you to Social Security benefits. Since you can't work planning will be tough. But my understanding is that you can earn a certain limited amount of money even on disability. If you can, maybe go that route and invest the earnings in an IRA so you'll have at least some money when you do reach full retirement age.

In reply to Mark DeMent. Hi Mark - I can't give specific financial advice without knowing you personally. But you might do a web search under "aggressive growth funds". But at 63, I don't advise putting all your money in such a fund, if $22k is all you have.

I need to know where to invest in an aggressive fund. I have 22k in a fund plus a monthly investment around $50 a month. What do you suggest. I am 63. My home should be paid
off in 7 years and will have 220K in home euity, Thanks.
