stock brokers or investment people help

Hubby is filling out his retirement plan and looking at stock options we know nothing so far we put 25% in a moderate risk and 25% in each of three different high risk returns. We are in our fifties and figure since we don't have a retirement plan other than my penny jar and the occassional lottery ticket these high risk ones may be a good idea, what do you think or what would you advise?

Ok is is safe to say we have no one experienced in this type of thing here or their here but not willing to give out free advice? Which one?

You know what free advice is worth, don't you? Seriously, my advice is to not take financial advice from anyone who doesn't have an extensive background in it and willing to take the considerable time to learn about you, your situation, your capacity for risk, and your short and long term goals.

Of course, there's no guarantee and you may fare just as well throwing darts at the stock report. Good luck and hey, be careful out there.
