Default RIP: Financier John Bogle

I'm not sure how many fans Mr. Bogle had at a guitar forum, but I couldn't let his passing yesterday go without a mention. He was a legend in the investment world... one of the most innovative men of his era. He is credited with doing more for the average investor than anyone in history. He probably had more to do with the typical American becoming a stock market investor than any other. He revolutionized the mutual fund industry by perfecting the concept of index funds. And he certainly directly and indirectly helped shape my philosophy of investing. Remarkable man... he will be missed in the financial world.
