'10 Questions' Goes Back to School

Labor Day Weekend calls to mind a few essential memories from adolescence: back-to-school planning, the sinking feeling that you forgot everything from the last school year, and an end to TV reruns.

With that in mind, today's 10 Questions aims to encompass all these hallmarks of Labor Day -- in other words, it's a rerun of the best lessons from previous columns over this past summer. And investing timetables are a bit like school years -- sell in May and go away, and then endure the low-volume summer doldrums before fall brings renewed market activity.

So, for the poor readers who are trolling financial news sites on Labor Day, try not to think of today's column as a rehash of previous Q&As, but as a refresher course of timeless investing advice to help prepare you for the coming year. Read on for the best morsels from 10 Questions since Memorial Day weekend.
