Hi,

I am on a H1b from India and I am planning to take a retirement plan.

My employer has tied up with Vanguard. I would like to know which fund through Vanguard should I invest in.

I will be quite happy with a fund that gives me negligible returns but has least probability of making a loss.

I do understand that these investments are not risk free but I am looking for a plan which has the least risk.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Prakash
