Serious question -- what type of books, blogs, etc should I read on investing? I have a Roth IRA, but have no idea where to invest it. I know most folks are self taught - so any suggestions? Thanks!

I just started getting Money magazine. It covers much more than Roth IRA management but I like it so far.

My SO adds very little to our relationship. She has a dead end job. I cook. I work. I oversee finances. I plan trips. She doesn’t have a voice in the relationship. I’ve asked her to give her perspective but she always defaults to mine bc she thinks I’m smarter/worldly. She feels intimated by me and my social circle. Lately, I’ve found myself thinking for her. Anticipating her wants and needs and then adjusting my behavior to meet them. Which she appreciates but it’s frustrating 29M 27F
